Vintage Tattoo


I adore the old style tattoos and the gorgeous font that they used back then. I especially enjoy the images tattood by 'Sailor Jerry' the original vintage tattoo artist. http://www.sailorjerry.com/tattoos.php

Inspired by these types of images, I thought I'd try out a tattoo inspired cupcake. I am really pleased with the results and I'm now thinking of other tattoo designs to go with these heart ones. For these ones, again I used a sinple vanilla cupcake recipe and frosted with a vanilla bean butter cream.

As well as the tattoos, Sailor Jerrys rum is officially my favourite tipple at the moment too, I love the vanilla spiced undertone and the sweetness of it.....infact I may pour myself a small one now with a fat lime wedge and a splash of coke!
