Extra sparkly Christmas cupcakes

These fun Christmas cupcakes are by The Voluptuous Cup Cake Company in Perth, Australia, who can be reached at voluptuouscupcake at iprimus.com.au, via their Facebook page. The last one is a cupcake ornament, not made by them, but from Facebook too that I thought was cute. One month Christmas cupcake countdown!

Hot Cocoa Anyone?

Yes these are cupcakes. Look very very closely..... hard to tell right?!?

They were made by Anna at Diary of a Ladybird, a blogger from Sydney, Australia.

She created these little mindwarps by wrapping fondant around a vanilla cupcake and making icing to look like hot cocoa.

How awesome??? It makes you wanna curl up with a big glass of yummy hot chocolate doesn't it?
