A new member in the ladybug cupcake family..Guess who???...螵虫蛋糕家中有新成员..猜猜是谁??

The last time I make this Steam ladybug cupcakes is for submitting them to Aspiring Baker 13 Enjoy cupcakes host by Min. I wanted so much to join, but that particular month I was so busy with my youngest because his nanny is on leave. 
I was busy until the last day of the submission date, around 10pm, I told my hubby that I must submit a cupcake. I get ready my ingredients and start doing. Everything is rushing all the way...:@ 
Finally, around 11.30pm my cupcakes is done. I am really happy with the result. Obstacles come again...:( I don't really know how to submit my cupcake ...I started to get panic...TIME is almost up...:p I hold on to my motto "Never never give up until You have do you very Best"...At last I manage to submit my entry...I was very very happy.
I am gonna share step by step how I make this steam ladybug cupcakes...^^
If you are interested to do this the recipe is here:

~Put all the ingredients into a mixing bowl and beat till pale and fluffy..把所有的材料倒入搅拌盘,打发~ 

 ~Take 1 1/2 tablespoon of the plain batter and put into a small piping bag/plastic bag...

把1 1/2 大匙的面糊放入一个挤花袋~

~Take another 3 tablespoon add in 1/2 teaspoon bamboo charcaol powder stir well. Put in a pipping bag with a plain nozzle on...在拿3大匙面糊拌入1/2小匙竹炭粉, 再装上圆行的挤花嘴.

 ~把其他的面糊都加上大红色素或红菊米粉, 拌匀再倒入小杯子, 倒7-8份满...

Add in red colour to the rest of the batter, mix well. Pour into cupcakes mould by filling up around 70-80% ~

 ~Draw a cross on the cupcake and filled up the upper part by using the bamboo charcoal mixture...用竹炭的面糊来画上一个十在蛋糕上, 再把上面的部分图上颜色~

~用原味点上两点,做眼睛...use the plain mixture to make 2 little round dots for the eyes~

~再用炭色的面糊点上螵虫的身纹(点点)...Again use the charcoal colour mixture to make a few dots for the ladybug body ~

 ~this is the end result before steam...做好了...还没蒸熟的~

 ~蒸熟了..快来尝尝...Its cooked ... hurry up ..try one...^^

~What do you think of this result?....你晓的效果如何?...;)~

After that first time doing the ladybug cupcakes, I try again the second time. The first time I find that the head part colour is not that nice because I used dark brown. My sister suggest that I use bamboo charcoal so.... come again the second time..

This is when the new member comes in .... Ms Buzz Bee...look how sweet she is...:)

这是第二次再尝试做, 再做是因为晓得上次的头部颜色不够美. 上次用了巧克力色而这次就听了妹妹的建议用竹炭粉...也制造了个新成员..小蜜蜂妹妹...:p

~Little Ms Buzz Bee looks really cute too...小蜜蜂妹妹,,可爱吧~~

**Tips to prevent failure in making the little cuppy ladybugs..

*Beat mixture till it is fluffy

*Do not use cup that is too narrow at the bottom ..mine is 4.5cm at the bottom and 7cm top

*Do not filled up to full, only 70-80% full

*Only use medium flame to steam if too high heat the cuppy will smile(crack) and also not too small flame or it will not rise...hahaha so ...:p

*Wish you have a go time and successful time making this ladybug cupcakes.

**做螵虫蛋糕的小贴使:

*把面糊打到发

*不可用底部太小的杯..我的是底4.5cm,上7cm

*不可装到太满,只装7-8分满, 要不然蛋糕会笑(裂纹)

*只用中火, 也不可太小火...很长气吧...:p

*最后,祝您有个开心,成功的制做蛋糕过程....^^
