These cupcakes are perfect for the positively Arctic temperatures out there. Ok, not quite Arctic but blooming freezing nonetheless.
I was sent some lovely chilli penguins from Hotel Chocolat, part of their Christmas gift selection, and decided to use them as cupcake toppers.
I opted for a coconut cupcake topped with a coconut covered snowball of coconut frosting - what can I say I love coconut and thought it would go well with the slightly spicy chocolate.
The chocolate penguins went really well with the cakes, and would make a lovely stocking filler for a fan of chocolate with a little chilli kick. If they're not a fan of chilli chocolate the penguins also come in caramel! Yum
Finally, don't you just love my little penguin guarding the cupcake?

Yay, a post at last, I've missed reading your blog :) Those cakes were lovely and coconutty and the chilli chocolate went perfectly with them. They look so nice too. The penguin will look great up on our xmas tree :)
They look divine! Plus you can't go wrong with Hotel Chocolate! Will be busy baking them this weekend.
