ROCKIN ROBIN

These are some gingerbread cupcakes with lemon butter cream that I made as Christmas presents.

I use the Nigella Lawson recipe from her 'Domestic Goddess' book.  I half the recipe and that gets me twelve cupcakes.  I then use buttercream instead of the water icing she uses.  I covered these in fondant, I wanted to decorate them with something a bit fun and thought robins would be perfect!
