Today Arantxa and I went up to Taste Matakana in Warkworth for a cupcake workshop. It was a great chance for Arantxa to teach girls (and boys) to make sugar flowers and decorate cupcakes. Kids went home with a plate full of their creations, and grown up got really into it too. And I guess that it is time to  show a cupcake recipes: the photo above is our Chocolate Truffle Cupcake, please click here to find the article on Yahoo Lifestyle, with the link for this recipe (chocolate ganache included). Also Yahoo offers NZ residents a chance here to enter to win a copy of the book (and if you don't live in NZ you can always enter here).

I would like to thanks blogger Frances Chan from The Bake Club who came to the book launch, you can see her photos and read about the event on her blog. Next workshop, about sugar roses and flowers, is at Millys in Parnell (Auckland) next Saturday. See you there!
