Penguin Snowball cupcakes

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?

Showing Shana some love

I really DO love Shana Logic! They have the cutest items in the world including this rather yummy cupcake love necklace! They have an array of other cupcake items including the lovely track jacket which I already own (its GORGE!!!)

And although it's not cupcake I couldn't resist posting a pic of the adorable little blue penguin! As they say on the site...Eeeek - so cute!!!
