Hi and hello ... :smile:

My name is Nicola - I am almost 28 years old, I am English born and bred, and now I live in Stuttgart, Germany. Which is a beautiful place to live!

I am VERY new to cupcake lurrrrrrve ... so new infact - the oven is still cold. :rolleyes:


I got a little bit obsessed about cupcakes about 3 weeks ago, when I was looking through flickr and I saw the most amazing cupcakes, then I bought a recipe book whilst I was back in England over Christmas ... and I was also bought a food processor/mixer for Christmas ... hook, line, sinker ... now obsessed!

I am dreaming about them ... it is my first day back in germany afer the Holidays, and here I am working ... ahem, surfing the net on my lunchbreak... to find other like minded people. All i wanted to do this morning was stay at home and BAKE!

luckily for me though - Wednesday is a national holiday here in Germany ... so I will be spending all day in the kitchen!

I am also obsessed with beads, making beads, making jewellery - and for sure beads and baking will not mix! (we can't be having beadies in the cupcakes now can we?! *lol* )

So, I am looking forward to integrating with you all, sharing ideas, recipes and photographs. I do my best not to be a fair-weather forumer ... so hopefully you will see me more and more! If any of you are on flickr as well, let me know - and i will love to add you as a contact

:happy:

Lotsa love
Nicola

Welcome SmittenKitten! Cupcakes are the perfect medium for a baker's creativity, are they not? It's easy to see how someone can become smitten with them in such a short time.

I wonder if beads could be made out of royal icing... hmm.

Enjoy your new-found obsession!

Thanks for the welcome Princess :)
Indeed you will see the photos of my creations, being so new - I hope that you will be able to see my obsession and skills grow!

A friend of mine just had a baby boy - and I'm already asking when we are going to see them so I can prepare baby-boy cupcakes to take with me! :)
