Hummingbird cupcakes


Needed to use up desiccated coconut and was intrigued by this recipe which also includes pineapples and overripe bananas.

Was curious about the rationale behind the name, but my search didn't yield anything definitive.

KI shuttle


Who knew their fleet included doubledecker buses?! Am now sitting in the front row of the top deck.

For 4 days this week, classes are held in Huddinge in the morning and in Solna in the afternoon.

My final cupcake post of the day


Methinks this one survived transit much better.

[This was okay, but I prefer the vanilla/lemon over it. Thought there was maybe too much cocoa and too little sweetness, but that could just be because I want stuff to be sweet to the nth degree. There was some filling incorporated and while I thought it was a nice touch, I wasn't really keen on the choice. May have been almond paste or marzipan, I think, and while I like them on prinsesstårta, I would prefer it if they stayed away from chocolate.

No home runs so far, but I will be dropping by again next week. Have already set my sights on the flavors: red velvet and carrot.]

Reinforcements


Waaah! Pen died on me mid-lecture and I didn't have any spares.
