Pink Polka Dots

That's the cupcakes case my sister bought on impluse during our monthly trip to PhoonHuat.
With no idea of what she can do about it, it was left untouched at a corner in the kitchen.

With Valentine around the corner, the cupcake cases was finally remembered by my sister.
Bake strawberry cupcakes we would.

The lovely pink cupcake cases.

Wanted to overload this post with pictures but after counting, i realised i might have more than 25 pictures to be uploaded.

Especially when my sister decided to decorate them since Valentine is around the corner.

So to cut things short and sweet and to prevent anyone who might be tired of scrolling through all the unneccessary pictures before reaching the finished products.

I decided to pick the nicer ones out and combine them into one or two thumbnails.

Back to the cupcakes.

Decided to use strawberry jam instead of the fruit itself because the latter is much perishable and its impossible to have all strawberry having the same sweetness level.

Using the jam also meant easier control during the baking as the fruit may released more juices hence causing the cupcake to bake longer(unneccesary because i will end up with a overbake cupcake.)

i used the most versatile cupcake recipe i had and the cupcakes came out successfully.

Of course, i will remember to cut down the sugar as the jam itself prove to be a good sweetener.

Luckily, my sister's friends did find them delicious.

I guess that all i need to hear after a day of baking and decorating.
