Kiwiana themed cupcakes..



New Zealand is known for quite a few things. The first thing that one would see when you're abt to land on NZ soil is perhaps dots of white which look like white jelly beans from the sky - SHEEP! Yes. There are more sheep than humans in our country...

Also known for Rugby - the ALL BLACKS - hot guys running around in tight shorts and black shirts, chasing a small ball - woo hoo! There's the Kiwi bird, also the Kiwi fruit (green and golden), beaches, the greenery/ ferns , Koru, jandals, Jaffas (chocolate with a coat of red/ orange crunch), pineapple lumps (pineapple flavoured lolly with chocolate coat).... the list is endless...

I had a LOT of fun creating these Kiwiana theme cupcakes ... there were at least 8 ideas that I wanted to try but managed to do 6.

There's the flock of sheep (including a black sheep in the herd), The All Blacks, Kiwis (2 types), Jaffas (2 flavours - Orange base cupcakes with chocolate icing and Red velvet cake with butter icing both peppered with Jaffas, and the Koru.

Delivered these earlier and loved Rachael's reaction... feels great to get feedback like that... can't wait to get feedback from the whanau Rach...hope you enjoyed the little samples ; )
