The best part about easter is the cheap chocolates after the easter break. I'm going to be living off hot choc buns for the next week, yum! Speaking of food, during the easter weekend i made delicious butter muffins, they're the ones in the picture but i also put a frosting on them. They were pretty basic, but so delicious.

Those cakes look like they turned out fab. I made some myself a week ago when I was visiting some family, and the thing came out looking like a wonky version of Mount everest haha. Not great. :)

Thanks for the comments. I didn't have any easter eggs to put in the muffins, but what a great idea, i might go get some eggs just for that purpose.
