Eda's wedding cupcakes


This is one of my favourites, like the contrasting colours. Butter cupcakes with buttercream topping. Made these last November for a friend's "hantaran". I'm in Subang Jaya and she was in Kelantan! We were worried the buttercream wouldn't stay in shape through the long journey. She got her sister and brother-in-law to collect the cupcakes two days before the ceremony. She'd ordered another two boxes of butter cupcakes and chocolate cupcakes. I asked her brother-in-law to put the box of "hantaran" under the other two boxes in the front seat so that it would be protected from the heat. But he insisted they would be better off in the boot! Your guess is as good as mine. Halfway through the journey he checked on the cakes and the buttercream had melted so badly you couldn't see the design! Thank goodness the other box of butter cupcakes were of the same design and my friend could replace the melted ones with these. So, it was a pretty good ending :)
