#9 Peaches and Cream (with a valentines twist)

Can you guess the valentines twist?! I really am no fan of Valentines day, but I was quite excited watching 'baking make easy' the other week when she showed that pithing the strawberry means instant hearts when you chop'em, I usually just lop the top off! So what better time to try. Rather more tasty than the delightfully (disgustingly) furry red heart cushions I noticed in tesco earlier. Not that I tasted them but I think it's a given. So these are tasty little peach and vanilla sponges with cream cheesey butter icing and a straaaaawberry ona top! Nice and simple. Smashingly tasty.

#6 Red Velvet

 Whaaaat a colour! And it only takes half a bottle of food colouring... The classic red velvet sponge with cream cheese icing, nice wee bit of cocoa in the sponge, tis super soft. Just in time for a wee valentine themed cupcakey day if you're running low on ideas! Much better than a bunch of flowers picked up from the local garage. A combination of the two however: unstoppable...
