Food porn - kiss vanilla cupcakes

Keep it simple, stupid. Otherwise known as the ‘kiss’ principle. My public relations tutor was a huge fan of the kiss principle. Apply it to your media releases, media kits, academic essays... or any activity in your life. So that’s what I’m doing with this week’s post – keeping it simple with my attempt at food porn.

I am a horrible photographer, but even I was impressed with these snaps! But when you’re photographing gorgeous vanilla cupcakes with butter cream, topped with handmade royal icing roses (yes, I really did make the roses all by myself!), it really isn’t all that hard! These are the best vanilla cupcakes I’ve ever made (not kidding) and you can check out the recipe from Joy of Baking here. Enjoy. Oh and I’ve also included a few snaps of my brand new electric mixer! Hurrah! And remember – keep it simple, stupid!
