Introducing one of our Favourites - CUPCAKES


Cupcakes are not only cute, but they make a memorable impact as well as they are fun to make and great to share with friends. Cupcakes are sweet works of art that are perfect in proportion and bring you happiness as they go down and are equally loved by adults and kids, and make a great treat any time, plus you definitely dont need a special reason to spoil yourself and enjoy them however remember they are best eaten on the day they are baked but can stay fresh up to 3 days in an airtight container.

Cupcakes are versatile little cakes that can be used for a casual birthday gathering or even a more glamorous affair. . . Cupcakes are being used instead of wedding or engagement cakes, because there is no messy cutting, as well as they offer a wide range of themes and decorations to suit the style of your special day from pretty flowers through to fun love hearts.

Now that Cupcakes are on the market again they are all the rage and back with a vengeance. Their decoration on them is only limited by your imagination; I sincerely hope that you will find the link to so many cupcake recipes exactly what is needed to get your imagination moving.

Cupcake Tips:
If it turns out that you have an empty well in your cupcake pan, fill it with water. This will help keep the pan at an even baking temperature for the other cupcakes.Also you know that cupcakes are baked if they spring back when lightly touched in the centre

After doing a little bit of researching
I came across this incredible BLOG about
cupcakes and the passion this woman
has not only for baking but the variation
of recipes and ideas. The list of
recipes to choose from is
endless from St Patricks Day cupcakes
Christmas, Easter even Menopause
Cupcake recipes!

I have included the Blog Link
however if you prefer just copy
and paste into your own web
browser. You will certainly be
amazed at the variations.

Cushy Koosh Cushions

These decadent Silk Cushions make a stunning addition to any living room. Made from 100% Indian silk, the cushions are gently patterned and team well with the Plain Silk Cushions in coordinating colours to create a designer look with ease. Being silk, cushion covers are dryclean only to preserve the quality of the fabric.

Cushions are a great way of updating a room on a budget and can be changed seasonally to reflect the colour and mood changes of the seasons. For example, in winter, the Choc Purple Silk Cushion would sit perfectly next to the Designer Silk Cushion in Beige Twig.

In summer, the Designer Cushions in Deco Dot Lime teamed with the Cream Frost Silk Cushions lighten and brighten the room to to give it a summery feel.

Cushion Tip:
Rotate your cushions weekly to ensure even wear. Our cushions contain high quality Tonine filling which will not lose its plumpness as other inferior fillings do, which means less maintenance and a longer lasting comfort.

Be Bowled Over by the Ute Bowlboard

The latest addition to the SugarSpiceNice range is the Ute Bowlboard which combines functionality with beauty. The carbonized bamboo provides a mould resistant surface on which to prepare meals and the four food grade melamine bowls are conveniently located within the board itself. This feature ensures less handling of food in the preparation phase, and the high grade melamine will not corrode or become brittle as regular melamine often does.

Not only can this bowl be used in food preparation, but would look equally good when serving a tapas style entree. Toasted Turkish bread with a selection of dips is always a hit when entertaining, and with the Ute Bowlboard, the food is hygienically and beautifully presented.


HOT TIP FOR A CHILLY NIGHT:

Curling up on the couch with a good book or movie is so comforting in the winter months. For a stylish and warming addition to your sofa, the Lancaster Throw Rug in chocolate is the perfect companion to a neutral theme. This throw adds contrast in winter colours to any scheme and is great for adding dimension in winter when the look of added volume is desired.

SUGAR SPICE NICE WEB SITE DEVELOPMENT

Wow after a lot of research, development,late nights and procrastination I am happy to announce the launch of my new web site. I have a new found respect for those web developers who not only have to develop the look and feel of a site but listen and take on board the business owners who want "their" site to be special and "can we just make this change" and "does that have a lighter colour shade" and so on and so on. I am very lucky that I found a wonderful guy named Col Pearson with an incredible supply of patience who in his wisdom allowed me to voice all the visual bits and pieces that I thought I should have and then say "well it would look better like this" and I would think "yeah that does look better". So my advice for small business owners with a limited budget really take the time to ask others about who created their site and find their "wonderful" Col Pearson web developer because i can assure you it makes the journey so much more enjoyable and rewarding at the end of the day.

OFFICIAL LAUNCH MONDAY 12th MAY
