The wife loves to bake cakes and sometimes gets roped into making cupcakes for various ladies get togethers, so as I was standing in the kitchen wondering what to do this came to mind.
It's a box made from a particularly stubborn piece of ash. Mixed some red spirit stain with some liming wax to try and mimic icing.
Inspiration comes from some funny places at times.
