I recently found a pin on Pinterest showing how to make heart shaped cupcakes and really wanted to try it.  Perfect little cupcake for valentines day!!

I used a Greens Golden Butter Cake packet mix to make the cupcakes.  Line tin (I use a muffin tin) with patty cases, fill cases with cake batter, add a marble to each muffin hole to indent the case into a heart shape.

Ice and decorate

 Tried, tested and worked!!  They look so sweet!  

So maybe I do do Valentines Day after all
