I’m always looking for new animal designs to put on cupcakes, so I really enjoyed making these lizards! Since lizards can change their colors I had an excuse to make these as colorful as I wanted! I first made a heavy glaze and dipped the tops of the cupcakes in it to produce a smooth [...]
A cute design for Easter. I wanted to make these bunnies less ‘cartoony’. I tried to pipe a more realistic shape for more adult tastes since most kids I know don’t like carrot cake too much… since its called ‘carrot’ cake. I started out with regular carrot cake cupcakes and frosted them with cream cheese [...]
This cake was made for a friend who loves turtles and bright colors. I had previously made the Spring Frog Cake for her and I wanted to continue that theme. To make this cake a little different I decided to use a square shape. I used yellow cake and put a strawberry filling between layers. [...]
A great cake for St. Patrick’s Day! I’m sure it would look very nice next to a glass of green beer. First, I placed an angel food cake upside down on a cake board. Next, using mint flavored whipped topping (you can use Cool Whip and add mint extract and green food coloring.) I filled [...]
Football cupcakes in honor of the Super Bowl! I made yellow and chocolate cupcakes and decorated with buttercream frosting. I used a large sized grass tip to pipe grass all over the top of the cupcake. Next, I used a #8 round tip to pipe a football on top of the grass. I then outlined [...]
Dinosaur cupcakes, all dressed up for Valentine’s Day! These dinosaurs are the same as in my previous dragon cupcake post, only with hearts added instead of wings. In making these cupcakes you could use a variety of colors such as hot pink, purple, light blue, yellow, and light pink. These dinosaurs can also easily be [...]
Here is a cake that was a lot of fun to do. This idea all started out in the imagination of my eight year old niece. She wanted a faerie and a mermaid on her cake. I wanted to do a two tier cake and decorate each according to the mythical creature that would be [...]
Two of my favorite cold weather animals, polar bears and penguins! The cake was first frosted with blue buttercream and then drizzled with white glaze around the sides. I added a ‘e’ shell border with white buttercream to give the cake a more finished look. Before adding the polar bear and penguin I sprinkled on [...]
‘Tis the season! Time to start decorating the house, and cakes, for the holidays! To make this CupCake I arranged twelve cupcakes in the shape of a Christmas tree. To give the tree ‘pine needles’ I used a #22 star tip and worked from the bottom row up to give it a layered look. Next, [...]
A CupCake turkey for Thanksgiving! This pull-apart cupcake is made with twelve cupcakes, both chocolate and yellow. The cupcakes are ‘glued’ to the cake board with frosting to keep them from moving. First, the feathers are formed by using a large rose tip. Next, the body, head, and wings of the turkey are added with [...]
