fete cupcakes



my creation for Lillys School fete tomorrow.
i discovered glitter dust for cake decoration, i love it the stuff, its pretty cool.
ive been using the cupcake recipes from joyofbaking.com its a fantastic site. i want a reason to make the red velvet ones, they look so cute.
all the flowers and butterflies are just fondant with royal icing. its easy as. they have been through all sorts of conditions this week to. it was hot when i made them, sweating type hot, not fun, in fact YUK, and now its freezing and been raining for a few days, which made everything extra fragile!
i managed to get a cupcake carrier half price last week. it will get quite the work out between now and christmas.
next cupcakes will have snowmen on them for emilys preschool christmas party. wish me luck

Hi Jacqui, how do you make the flowers for the cakes, did you use a little cookie cutter or something to get the shapes? I would love to make some.
