Cupcakes ♥

After the BBQ day, it was cupcakes day! weee~ Michelle, Min Yee, Rose & I gathered at Von's house to bake some lovely cupcakes for our lovely friend Kha Hoi whose birthday falls on 23 Nov. I know,early birthday celebration cos we couldn't celebrate for her on the day itself. This is the 1st time at trying our hand at baking! but of cos the chef among us, von has baked it numerous times! :D rose too, for her mum's birthday. Before the baking session, Von made us lunch. Yum! Spaghetti Carbonara with Grilled Chicken Breast. Thanks Von!

TA-DAAH! dont they just look adorable? xD
We made it! *sense of accomplishment creeps in* xD

We planned to make it a surprise for KH, so Min Yee & Michelle went to Koya Restaurant 1st to put the cupcakes. This restaurant is my fav place for Jap food. The food is affordable and comes in large portions. Even Von was impressed with it *and everybody know she's a food critic*

Michelle looks like some japanese doll here >< Only when lookin at leng zais Min Yee will have this kind of stare xD

Finally,the cake was brought out. too bad the tauke dint light it up for us before bringin it out =/

Sincerely hoped that KH liked the cupcakes. It was our very 1st time making it and it turned out to be better than we expected. Next time we might bake cakes, who knows? =)
