Like most of the UK, we had our village street/barn party for the Jubilee celebrations in the cold and drizzle. The great British summer didn't stop us from having a get together, we just wore our cagoules, stylish I know. It was still good fun, if a bit damp.
Here are the cupcakes I made for the party, lemon with a home-made lemon curd filling and a new one, Earl Grey- which were totally delicious. I wasn't sure how the Earl Grey were going to go down with a mixed crowd of locals, mostly proper farmers perhaps not so inclined towards the more unusual cake flavours in life. But the cupcakes all disappeared fairly quickly, so I needn't have worried. Perhaps the farmers of Devon are more experimental in their tastes than I had imagined. and of course, I decorated a couple of cupcakes especially for our Lizzie, if she felt like dropping by.
