Hi Lorraine-Great name! Thankyou so much!

Hi Tash-Fantastic, red velvet is so apt! I was tossing up whether to do that (it’s also in the Claire Crespo book) but couldn’t find the time. Have fun at yours!

Hi NQN – our Hallowe’en party this year will be graced with Red Velvet cupcakes (blood red, of course!) iced to look like brains! Maybe an idea for next year?

Hi grace-that’s just the reaction I was hoping for

Hi Sandie-It is so easy but effective. I love using those icing tubes too, so much easier than making a paper cone.

Oooh cool, you never know, he might still be around somewhere. This one glows in the dark, but only if we keep it in the light for a few hours!

Hi Suzie-Thanks so much! Fondant is surprisingly easy, I love using it although I used to fear it

Hi Angela-Oh ok, I’ve never seen it, I don’t think it made it to these shores -yet! Will look out for it.

Hi Y-I’ve seen some where the veins are painted on and they look great but I didn’t have a red edible pen

Hi Cakelaw-Thanks! I have my husband to thank for that gruesome idea

These are great – I like how even the cupcakes underneath the icing have veins.

How clever! I’ve made an eyeball cupcake before. We painted the veins on instead of piping. I like the green lifesaver idea

Jamie Murray used to star in Hustle. A BBC drama about a stylish gang of grifters, stealing from the rich to give to… well, themselves. One of my favourite series!

These cupcakes are fantastic – I think it is time for me to get over my fear of fondant!
