The Living End Retrospective Cupcakes

Last December, one of my favourite bands in the world treated us to the most amazing tour in the world. They played every album, front to back, over 6 nights in every state. In Melbourne, their home town, we got a few extra shows so we ended up with 11 shows [plus an extra one-off show for the under 18s].

It was one of the most amazing weeks of my life. There are no words to convey how amazing it was, how thankful I am to those guys for giving us something so special. They treat their fans better than any band I know.

Since I was flat out with Christmas stuff I didn't have time to make the album replica cakes I wanted to, so I made a much smaller celebration. These are red velvet cakes with cream cheese icing. They feature the bands logo, which I piped from dark chocolate. The bands album design almost always consists solely of red, white and black, so I wanted to stick with that colour theme.
