I’ve got the Blues
As a little girl my favourite colour was blue (I liked it because all my girlfriends liked pink). I’ve been feeling a little blue this week… to show you how blue I’ve been feeling I decided to incorporate all my favourite categories into one post! In this post you’ll find a simple recipe for blueberry cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, ck one color eye gloss pencil, Sally Hansen real nail polish strips and fashion!
Blueberry Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting with Sally Hansen Real Nail Polish Strips “Hear me Roar”.
House of Harlow Pyramid Bar Necklace from Cauchois & Calo, Ba&sh Toucan blouse from Cauchois & Calo with Sab.bot white belted heels.
Sexy ck one color eye gloss pencil in Vivid.
The texture of ck one color eye gloss pencils are wet, this makes it easier to apply colour to the eye. It’s also thick so it’s entirely up to you whether you want a full eye colour (below) or a lower lash line highlight (above). As you can see the colour comes out exceptionally well, the Vivid pencil above doesn’t look as electric as its true colouring (editorial picture below depicts the true colour) due to the colouring of my camera. I’ll definitely be buying one of each in every gorgeous colour.
What do you think about the ck one color gloss pencil colours?

That sounds like a good idea ^^
Heck yeah this is exactly what I neeedd.
Got the kids making these for Easter and they have now become a staple in our lives. The kids bake them every couple of weeks and decorate them with squeeze bottles. I m starting to look a little round myself – but loving them…
Oh my – that frosting looks like I could take a bath in it!!I miessd the first recipe (dummy me) but am definitely looking forward to more recipes – we’ve had those marked for awhile now!
- ok-just checked out the site and now I want to eat all those cucekaps AND go take pictures like those!beautiful job!
Sounds awesome! I live in Marsala near Palermo in Sicily and the only way I can get cupcakes is if I make them, I have several Italian friends (teachers and students mostly as I teach English) who are now devoted fans! I bake them for parties at school. I am thinking about selling them at the farmer’s market too we’ll see. I make creamy cream cheese frosting
Whenever I go home to the US I come back with bags of liners, and all my friends and family who visit from the States know what to bring…cupcake liners.
Really enjoyed your post. All the best.
THANK YOU! sooo veryyy much, I can finally have my boyfriend taste cupcakes!
Hi! I made these. The good thing is, they are delicious, and lovely in color. The bad thing is I overfilled the cups, and the overflowed and stuck to the cupcake pan. I plan on making them again on Wednesday, and I’ll definitely NOT overfill them.
frosting and pound cake, divine *sigh*.
What a great idea!!! Love it:-)
and im waiting for the new posts . Youre 1 of the very best write-up wrrties that ive observed recently . I also like the way your blog site seems , are you currently making use of wordpress?
drool, i ammm soo happy lol
Oh, so that is how you get the frosting so slwiry and pretty. Thank you for showing the bag with the mixed colors in it.
I just made this cake last night. It was DELICIOUS! My husband, who is Korean absloutely loved it. It’s been so long since we’ve been to Korea and he is always talking about Saeng Cream cake, so I made it for his birthday. Maybe I just did it differently, but there was more than enough sugar water (I will cut it in half next time), and way way too much frosting. I will cut it down by 1/3. Is it supposed to go on really thick? Because I didn’t do it very thin, but still had SO much left… just wondering if this is normal. I don’t care much about the extra though, because the cake turned out to be such a success. Thank you SO much for sharing the recipe!!
thanks for the recipe XD
Thank you for the recipe. It is pfreect! You are also right about the food colouring as I only used half of what was recommended.The only thing that would be good to know is some were pfreect and others were a bit lobsided and had cracks on the top any tips and advice?
OK, I swear I am not a stalker, but I just looked through your portfolio amazing things!
THOSE SHOES!
