thank you cupcakes & cake pops

I made these cupcakes for my ex-colleagues in my previous work place as a thank you note to them. Sorry for the bad photos as these were taken using the camera hand phone (had some issues with the "point and shoot" camera). These are chocolate cupcakes with chocolate ganache filling, covered with peanut buttercream icing and marzipan.

all 26 cupcakes packed in individual clear box.

While these are Chocolate cupcake pop (the 1st trial) which turn out quite okay, but I still thinks that it need improvement. I've been looking at Bakerella's website on these cute cakes and wanted to make some myself.

And these are my 2nd attempt which didn't turn out so well, the taste was all wrong....and I kinda hate the taste of the white chocolate on these cake pops.
