Daffodil Day Cupcakes - Cancer Awareness


I made these yummy cupcakes just to have at home for friends, family & visitors to enjoy with the aim of promoting awareness for the Cancer Councils daffodil day. Cancer seem to touch all our lives in some way so it is important we all support such a wonderful cause in any way we can. You can learn more about daffodil day here on the Cancer Councils website.

I took my inspiration from the colours if the daffodil day logo & so I used bright yellow cupcake cases, bright blue buttercream, yellow sprinkles & of course a nice big daffodil.

The cupcakes cake was lemon zing with a vanilla Swiss meringue buttercream & the daffodils I created using marshmallow fondant.


Don't forget to support daffodil day!
