I arrived at the office to find that Megan, a local BBC reporter, had seen pictures of my bride and groom cupcakes online and wanted to use them in her report on the votes for Gay Marriage.
She needed 7 men and 1 woman to represent the MP's and although I do have some of these cupcakes on display at the office I didn't have quite enough and so I decided to bake some more.
These cupcakes have to be some of my favourite ones to make for weddings because they look great when all together but also work well as a stand alone cupcake. I always think that they would make a special wedding favour or gift for guests as they leave.
All set up the cupcakes behaved themselves whilst they awaited Megans arrival. It was certainly a first for me having a camera and reporter in the office and it was great to be able to watch the report being put together and see the planning and thoughts behind it.
The cakes were actually only on screen for a matter of seconds on the show last Sunday but it was fun for my kids to see and I got to see my office from a totally different perspective (so pleased I had cleared all the equipment away before they arrived!!).
The cupcakes? well I'm trying to keep their 'feet' on the ground and so they are now residing alongside the other non-famous cakes at the office. They didn't get eaten though...and they live in hope that an agent has seen them and will be calling one day soon.
