I wanted to go all out for Georgie- the-wonder- girl's birthday and baked these little fig,walnut and caramel cupcakes...those golden bits on top are toffee "crowns" ( how impressive is that! Not really though 'cause they aren't as fiddly as they look)
I normally wouldn't go as far as the toffee crowns but it was her birthday after all..... fresh figs on top too, mmmm
I was quite proud of these little cakes and Charlie was just a little bit tempted ( you can see the remains of the whipped chocolate ganache topping on her cheeky face!)
Uau! i wish i could do that!!!!

I tried making those once but my toffee crowns absolutely and totally did not come out looking that impressive! Actually, they ended up more like broken up toffee sticks...! These look wonderful.

They look delicious! No wonder she has a smile on her face :-) I wish I could bake like that too!
