Vacation series: episode#6 : Making my very first order!

Hi everyone! Welcome to Little Chef’s Apron! Yesterday was a very exciting day for me.

My mom’s friend gave my very first order! I hadn’t planned that I would sell anything I bake but it seemed like a nice idea when I was preparing yesterday. I had to make 6 frosted chocolate cupcakes.

It was very fun and a new experience for me. My sister had also played a very creative role here. She made a very cute packaging for the cupcakes .

Here is a brief recipe of the cupcakes:

First, I added the curd, sugar, vanilla and oil to a bowl and whisked it well.

Then, I added baking powder and soda to the curd and mixed it. It became frothy and this would help to rise the cupcakes well.

Then I added flour and cocoa powder through a sieve and mixed it with he wet ingredients.

I added milk as required to make a flowy batter. then, I filled 3/4 th of each line tin a muffin tray with the batter and baked it in a pre heated oven at 170 *C for 20 minutes.

As it is lockdown time, I couldn’t get non dairy whipping cream so I used whipping cream powder. It whipped perfectly and I had to mix it white some milk and then whip. I added some cocoa powder to this as well.

After the cupcakes were completely cooled down, I piped out the cream with a star nozzle and sprinkled with pearls, chocolate chips and silver balls.

Here is my cupcake recipe with full measurements:

After this, it was fascinating to see how my sister’s package worked just how we wanted it to. Here is how she prepared it:

      1. Lexington was never a big hot-spot. Only had a few thousand cases and less than 400 deaths, most of which were due to co-morbidities or very old age, even older than ME!
        New cases are WAY down, like only 40 new ones yesterday. Very few dying from it now.
        Keeping you and your family in my prayers that you will be free from suffering this disease. Be safe, my young friend! 😊
        And, yes, butterscotch! 😁

  4. Keep on baking, as those cupcakes look stunning.

    I’m a huge fan of things with peanut butter and banana in them, but I don’t have many recipes with the two ingredients together in the same thing.

  6. Wow Aarushi! I’m pleased with your work! Congratulations on getting your very first order.

    Let me answer your question now
    If I had to place an order from you I would refer something with dark chocolate or chicken.

    And yeah.. Your mini decorations look delicious and presentable than the ones served in fancy bakeries.
