Spookberry Sisters: Treats and Treats

being strawberries, you would think we wouldn't enjoy autumn
well, you'd be wrong
strawbs only reach their true potential in the season of cosy jumpers, hot chocolate and falling leaves
these activities tend to reach their peak sometime between beth's bday and xmas
some people call this time of year halloween.
we're not those people
welcome to SPOOKBERRY 2015
we hope you're ready for some scary stuff...

LIKE THIS GIANT SPIDER!!!!!!!!!!!

ANNUAL BAKING TIME
keeping in with the tradition from last year we decided to go for cupcakes again
but cupcakes with a twist....

IMG_5872

being the busy kittens that we are, we picked up a box of cupcake mix 
and you know... did what it told us

IMG_5886

having magic spoons comes in handy for mixing the ingredients together
if you're a muggle we're afraid you'll have to do this by hand - soz!


when your mixture has been all mixed up 
it's time to splosh it into your container

we grabbed this snazzy mould which we though could be a fun time

IMG_5892

emmy (aka zombie cat) had the difficult task of dribbling the mixture in

be careful ems!

nice technique there 

IMG_5932

we had some left over mixture so decided to do some normal cupcakes too

we then popped them all into the oven and got cracking on the icing

beth (aka normal cat) took the job very seriously

after 15ish mins our spooky cupcakes were ready so we popped them out (literally)

while we waited for them to get all nice and cool
we decided to melt some chocolate for decoration

IMG_6031

we did both white and milk choccy - why choose when you can have both

IMG_6037

for the normal cupcakes we just slapped on some icing... and then more icing

IMG_6049

but our ghoulish goodies got the special treatment
they got to take a warm chocolate bath

IMG_6053

then we got pretty wild with the writing icing
