Good day,

I want to make my customers a box of (6 or 12) cupcakes as thank- you gifts for christmas.
I want them chocolate sponge, but i have no idea's on decorating. It is for customers, so it needs to "look" expensive or classy???

Any ideas? I dont normally do cupcakes, so a little out of my league.
Thanks in advance

my two personal favorites are to pipe poinsettas on them (nice quick and easy) or the cupcake ornaments (like the attached links)
