I love baking. Better yet, I love excuses to bake. My boyfriend and I have been quite busy these past few weeks, attending as many gigs as possible, including several dates of the
MC Lars/

mc chris/
Akira The Don tour. Halfway through this particular tour, I found out that both Akira The Don and Jon Thatcher-Longley (Lars' drummer) had recently had birthdays. So it was obviously baking time. I even got to use my new piping bag to practice making little swirls of icing. And we put little flags in them! They were well received by all, except mc chris, who liked them until we told him they were vegan. He ran off screaming "what have you done to me?!", all the while pulling disgusted faces. It was hilarious.
Here are some pictures:
Akira even mentioned them on his blog, because he is a lovely man.
Recipe is from 'Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World' by Isa Chandra Moskowitz & Terry Hope Romero. Basic Chocolate Cupcake with Vegan Fluffy Buttercream Frosting. Buy this book, it will change your baking life. Cupcakes are awesome <3
