lovely cupcakes Jo - what piping nozzle do you use?

Well yesterday I made a Swiss walnut and strawberry cake, basically a walnut sponge layered with fresh whipped cream and strawberries, covered in more fresh whipped cream and topped with more strawberries! It was for DH to take to work as it is his birthday tomorrow but he is off work.

Today I am making cupcakes for his birthday party tomorrow (he is 30!), so choc orange cupcakes and victoria sponge cupcakes (not sone these before, so normal sponge with alayer of strawberry jam on top and then vanilla butter cream, then i thought I'd warm up some jam and drizzle it artistically (?) over the top!

Also a quick question about how you upload photos - mine are all too big and teh upload fails. I can copy from facebook but then you can't click on them to make them bigger - any tips?:flower:

I think I used 3 different nozzles on them, The Wilton 1M for the big swirls and just some random flower hole ones for the others.

I always upload mine to here from Photobucket:flower:
