Originally was just going to make regular cupcakes for my family , no fancy stuff , just regular cupcakes and slathered some icing on top . Well , it never went that way , although i was so distracted earlier while i was making the french butter cream icing , i turned the sugar into caramel .. LOL , yes i had to redo it , wasted 2 eggs and sugar !! So my chocolate cupcakes , ended up with beautiful orange icing from yellow and red gel coloring that i used , and why did i choose orange ? Because my son loves the color of orange , and then i thought hmm .. why not playing around with added pumpkins there .. so there i was .. making the pumpkins using fondant . Not my favourite thing to do , but heck i was in the mood for it ..<\/p>\n
