My party: Cupcakes!

Hi everyone! I recently had my party, and wanted to show you all the Cupcakes I made for them!

Trust me, it was extremely fun--but hard at the same time! We colored marzipan and cut it out with all my Bento tools, shaped it, and put it on the cupcakes...


We had 3 big balls worth of marzipan and colored it all. The eyes and mouth we used Nori! It gave a nice little salty flavor in the cupcake.





One of my favorite ones, no doubt, is the strawberry. We took little Sprinkle dots and with tweezers, put them on. We also had to make a tulip into a Stem--This took all night, literally! But all the work paid off. They were a big hit, but most of the girls just ate all the marzipan on top, and left the cake.




If you not sure what marzipan is, it is similar to fondant, just a lot tastier. Its Almond Paste with sugar and such. It's a TON stickier than Fondant, and is overall harder to work with, But my mom and I just love marzipan, so we couldn't resist. The colors we chose are so bright and festive, they could make any party sparkle! Check out this link to pinterest to see the original Idea for our Yummy Desserts! I hope you enjoyed, see you next time!
