Umbrella Cupcakes for a Rainy Day

 Martha Stewart, eat your friggin' heart out! I got this idea from the world acclaimed cookery bible: Peppa Pig Magazine. They included a cupcake recipe but you could use any you like. My personal favourite, fail-proof, classic cupcake recipe is from the Hummingbird Bakery, London (link is below). Bake your cakes, apply buttercream icing to the top, decorate, slice in half then insert a bendy straw in the bottom - you need to trim each end to get the right shape. Could this be a more ideal rainy day activity in the school holidays?! 
Here is the Hummingbird Bakery cupcake recipe along with more 
rainy day baking ideas.
