I never think of decorating any cake/muffin/cupcake.. The only reason, I can’t wait tat long! I ll just grab a piece of it and enjoy :P 

When I sent tis pic to my cousin.. Her daughter (my 5-yr old niece) suggested to decorate it her way. Here are her words “Make girl face with chocolate cream and strawberries nose and mouth.. And strawberry leaf as flower on head” & I just followed d instructions :P 

Finally, got to taste my strawberry muffin… I’m happy ‘coz it turned out to be so well with a fresh-flavor! But I’m happier ‘coz she told me after seein tis muffin “Hey Masi… You r a muffin queen” :)
