Double double disaster

These were made and brought all the way to my hometown down south for my loyal customer. She did not specify any designs but she had a message for her sister to be put on the cuppies. I thought i'd try making ganache for the very first time and use white chocolate for the message writing like the ones i saw in Martha Stewart's Living magazine (pix below) - in the Valentine's day 2009 issue i purchased. Recipe here.

I was going to call it the double double choc cupcakes due to its choc contents (chocolate cake, with choc chips, choc ganache and white choc) but i now strongly should consider calling it double double the trouble or double double disaster chocolate cupcakes. Handling the melted white chocolate was too much a fuss and too darn messy, i finally gave up after a few miserable attempts and after the mess i made in my mum's kitchen. The 'roti jala' effect was the result of all this. Sorry i didn't deliver the message, babe (it was nasty, btw :P) but i do hope u guys enjoyed the (free) 'artsy' cuppies.. heheh.

** will try this again...
