Hi c_green-Thanks-I was rather happy that I found those cups I wil try it, cream cheese is probably my favourite frosting ever so any excuse to try it really!

Thank you!
I just ate the last slice of my guiness cake and i was looking for a calculator to adjust the baking time for cupcakes. Thanks for doing the work. I think the tall cups are brilliant, but you really should try the cream cheese frosting next time. Its lovely and light not as tart or sweet as some cream cheeses and really compliments the subtle cake flavor.

Hi Maria-Thankyou so much! Yep you’re right, its true, if it doesn’t look good, I’m just not as interested. Call me a complete sucker for packaging!

Excellent presentation of these little cakes! I think you did a great job on the shamrocks too. I know you’re a packaging girl..and it really shows with all your baked goodies. It makes all the difference!

Hi airy fairy-Hehe thanks and Happy St Patrick’s Day!

I wish I had a shamrock cutter but I couldn’t find one anywhere-its just easter stuff around now. The aftertaste is really interesting and the cake is so soft and moist, I really liked it!

these really look adorable…even in all their stereotypical glory - i’m feeling like you’re more irish than me!…the shamrocks are really nicely done (especially as u did them by hand!) i love the aftertaste that the guinness leaves when you eat this cupcake and i find that the guinness also really heightens and enriches the chocolate. lovely, lovely! happy st. patricks day…beannacht lá fhéile pádraig!
