Orange and Cranberry Cupcakes

This year instead of sending Christmas cards at work I decided to make some cupcakes. This is a fairly new concept to me, as I am not a great lover of icing and so I tend not to make things covered in it. But cupcakes always look so pretty and yummy and its Christmas so things have to be sparkly and festive. So I made pretty sparkly cupcakes.
This recipe was taken from the Primrose Bakery Book, and I have to admit the white chocolate icing was lovely. I fancy trying to make more cupcakes.

However, there were two problems, one, I made so many of them and iced so many of them, which was fun, but I was still icing them at 22:30 and I have to admit that the last few were increasingly uneven in presentation. Two, the icing was so overpowering in flavour (yummy) but this distracted you away from the yummy cake and it was yummy cake, yummy enough that it did not need icing.
