Birthday treat

When it's your birthday, it's your treat. For my balletgroup, I've made these cupcakes as a birthday treat. As I've already mentioned, cupcakes are great for practicing technique. So I've tried the brush embroidery technique again.

I've used two kind of cakes, stracciatella and chocolate. Both are topped with lemoncurd and covered with marzepin. With icing I've brushed the flowers on it. In stead of water, I've used some lemon juice. This gives the icing and cakes a little bit more flavor.
