Petit Valentines Cupcakes

  These are the perfect little cupcake hearts ever! I was making cupcakes in the kitchen one day and I decided to put frosting on my cupcakes. I whipped some yellow royal icing and it never occured to me that I used my heart silicone cupcake moulds. 

So then I filled my cupcakes with royal icing on the "heart part" and I drew a red heart on the cupcake.



Cute isn't it? I absolutely love it! I also just made the standard cupcake using the same method.


Another way you can do this is by using a bundtlette mould or a bite size standard cupcake mould!


Love it so much!

iPhone Bookmark


Right. Let's set this straight. I've always thought about the fact that in tap you can access your favorite web page or whatever. I've never ever personally liked this trick (And yes this trick is quite old, but not a lot of people don't know how to do it, let it alone know what it is.) , but  it's worth showing. Basically all it is, is that Apple (the company. Not the fruit!) lets you select your favorite web page and turn it into a bookmark on one of your iPhone pages. Here is an example:
See that white app looking thing with a heart on it? That's what we are going for. So that's what we are going to do! Let's go straight into the tutorial!
Note: This tutorial is for iPhone users only. I think that anyone who owns the very first iPhone that ever came out up to the latest and newest iPhone can do this. Also iTouch users can do this too!




So the first thing you are going to want to do is go to the Safari app and type in the web address (URL) you want to bookmark. For this bookmark I am using my website. (http://craftyascanbe.blogspot.com).



If you want your bookmark to have a clip of the web page just move and scale. I went for the heart because that's what symbolizes Crafty As Can Be. Afterwards, tap the icon with the square and the arrow coming out of it and tap “Add to Home Screen”.
Edit the name and the the icon. To edit the icon just tap the icon and select and drag 'till you get the icon you want. Then tap “Add” (top right hand corner).

Afterwards, your bookmark should appear on your iPhone screen. Enjoy going to your favorite web page with just a tap.

Snow Ice Cream

What? It's possible to get Snow Ice Cream? Yup  it is. I think this is a great recipe for anybody. I really not a big fan of vanilla ice cream, but I still like this recipe. Okay enough with the jibber jabber, let's get into the tutorial.
You will need:
US
Snow (you didn't see the what coming?)
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
Metric
Snow
119 ml milk
60 g sugar
5 ml vanilla


First things to do is combine milk, sugar, and vanilla until sugar has dissolved.
Go outside and fetch your snow.




















Then take snow about add about 1-4 teaspoons of vanilla.
Mix gently. You should get something like that. You can add sprinkle, marshmallows, whatever you want to it. I added chocolate syrup to get rid of that vanilla taste.
Have a great time making this!
