Cute Lemon Muffins

Butterflies, dragonflies, ladybirds and bees.  What better way to eat muffins!

My honey bought me this beautiful cupcake tin last year featuring all my favourite garden critters.

Up until now it had remained unused, then the perfect opportunity arose to try it out - the delivery of a bag of fresh lemons from our neighbour.

I used a recipe for lemon muffins which I found here.  The recipe was really easy with a lovely citrus zing - perfect to use up all those last lemons hanging on the tree.

There was some curiosity as to whether all the detail would show up by using muffin mixture, but I was pleasantly surprised - also by how easily they popped out of the tin.  Yay!

We are planning our little girl's first birthday party and I think a pink version of these might need to be on the menu - they are just so much fun to make.
