What is the difference between a fairy cake and a cupcake? Nobody seemed to know today apart from suggesting that you pick whatever word you fancy. On the internet it seems to veer towards cupcakes being more muffin like and American whereas fairy cakes are dainty, delicate and beautiful. Anyway piled high in the cake department included these delectable morsels with a cloud of pink buttercream and some sparkles. Also might have had a wee taste of raspberry and lemon cake, corgette and pecan cake, and spiced apple cake... On a completely different note tonight I attempted a tempura batter for dinner to lightly coat prawns and scallops. Sifting 1/2 cup cornflour and 1/2 white flour into a bowl then adding 3/4 cup of soda water and a beaten egg and stirring together until combined. Hmmm beautiful seafood but not sure the tempura did it justice at my novice fingertips should've just done simply in butter, chilli, lime zest and cooked the cauliflower florets in the tempura.
