Cupcakes?

Yesterday  (Wednesday) my daughter had a presentation on MACHU PICCHU for her Comparative Civilizations class.  As part of the presentation each group had to bring something in to share with the class.

So she and her friends made these at my house on Tuesday night:

At first I didn't understand why she would make cupcakes for Machu Picchu - were they made from ancient grains?  No they were confetti cupcakes decorated like Guinea Pigs.

Apparently in Peru there is a dish called CUY which is roasted Guinea Pig.

Surprisingly the cupcakes were a big hit with the class!

Until Next Time!
