Making a Clove and Apple cupcake

I sliced thin pieces of apple, dipped them into icing sugar and fried in butter until they has caramelised and gone brown but not burnt.

I made butter cream and added 1 teaspoon of ground cloves to the mixture. If you are unsure add 1/2 a teaspoon taste and add more if you like it.

I put the top back on, added more clove butter cream and added two slices of caramelised apple and 2 whole cloves.

I just love this awesome combination of flavours

Clove and Apple Cupcakes

I have decided to continue my look at spices in cupcake recipes and I decide to look at Cloves. I love that aromatic flavour of cloves and I have created these cupcakes which uses clove cupcake mixture, clove butter cream , caramelised apple slices and whole cloves. I put them in gold cases to give them that exotic Asian feel, like the use of gold leaf on Indian rice puddings.

I will post the recipes for these Clove and caramelised apple cupcakes as soon as I can.

Thanks to everyone who has been commenting on all parts of the blog it is really appreciated.
