I will be selling lots of xmas treats such as Luxury Christmas cakes, Pickled eggs and onions , Ginger bread houses, Edible Christmas tree decorations and of course Cupcakes.

Iam also doing a event called meet the maker which is in Wells, this event is for Love Local which is a website that sells local products from people located in Somerset and Devon

Unfortunately i will not be trading at Frome Market as there are too many traders with similar products. However i have looked at trading in Bath so fingers crossed!.

Yesterday day I received my Public Liability insurance which means I can now start selling my cupcakes, I also sent off my application for Artizan market so hopefully I should be selling at the market on the 5th of June!
I want to bake 4 types of cupcakes for the market i'm going to bake 100 in total, 25 of each following flavour.

Strawberries & Cream
Local Honey , topped with Honeycombe
Vanilla with rich vanilla icing
Somerset Cider

Fresh Strawberry Cupcakes

Fresh strawberry cupcakes with strawberry and vanilla icing, baked for Purgatory Records.

Today i looked at the application form for Artizan market in Frome. I think this would be a good starting point for selling my Cakes. I'm going to produce some best of British cupcakes with proper British and local ingredients such as Local honey, Somerset cider and Earl Grey!

also from now on il try and take more professional images.

Rum & Pineapple Cupcakes

These were baked using white rum & crystalised Pineapple chunks, I also used Pineapple extract in the sponge mix instead of the usual vanilla.

Bright Sherbet Cupcakes

These cupcakes have sherbet in the icing!

Union Jack Cupcakes

Marshmallow Cupcakes with a Union Jack design. I thought it was a good idea, what with the Royal Wedding being just around the corner.

Easter eggs... Not Cakes, but relevant

I made these as Easter gifts.

Comic Relief Cupcakes

These were baked for charity. The icing was white chocolate, i think the icing tasted like the white chocolate mice you used to get in sweet shops!

Equipment

This is the sort of Equipment i use for most of my cakes, decorations and toppers vary

Apple and Cinnamon

These cakes were made with Apple chunks cooked in a Cinnamon stock syrup, the left over Cinnamon syrup was reduced down and used in the Cinnamon icing, for the Apple decorations i used cinnamon sticks for the apple stalk for that extra Cinnamon taste!

Red and Black Cupcakes

A closer Photo of the Red and Black Cupcakes! Excuse the dodgy photo.

Red and Black Cupcakes

These cakes were made for Black Ink Tattoo studio launch party and were a prize in the raffle. The cakes were Vanilla with rich butter cream.

Rose and White Chocolate Cupcakes

This flavour of cake came with mixed reviews some people loved them others hated them Rose is a powerful flavour, if you like Turkish delight then you'd love these cakes!

Smaller version of a Christmas Cake ideal for gifts!
