A new recipe I was trying out today, a variation on my vanilla cupcakes. I baked them, photographed them and then … ate some! Same recipe as here but with a whipped cream and berry filling…..

About Barb Leopold

I live in the beautiful Adelaide Hills of South Australia which are a constant inspiration to me in my photography. As an observer of nature and the world around around me, I find many subjects here which I try to portray in an artistic and interesting way. Please contact me if there are any of my images you wish to purchase or otherwise use.

    I am definitely coming to tea!! We don’t get decent cakes here – the french flour is not easy to make a good old sponge cake with – although my Mum does keep us supplied with fruit cakes :)
