Make your own cupcake decorations

If you enjoy making your own cupcakes, but are getting fed up of buying toppers, shakers or glitter, why not make your own?
I find that I have left over fondant from making cakes, and although I keep them I rarely end up using them on other cakes before their sell by date. So I decided to make use of this extra material by making my own cupcake toppers.
Picture
I used a small heart shaped cutter for the claret fondant, and then used the remaining royal icing to pipe some detail onto it.

I used the same principle here... and below is how I used them on my chocolate chilli cupcakes

or a flower cutter? a small dot of icing for the centre

Make some small leaves and ... voila! a pretty way to make the very most of your ingredients.

    About me...

    Hi there...
    My name is Karrin, and I have been a passionate baker ever since I can remember! I have been making cakes for my family for years and more recently I have been asked by others if I would make cakes and savoury treats for them too.

    Since I have decided to give baking ago as a hobby business, I decided I would like to keep a record of my thoughts, queries, successes, failures and findings!

    I would love to hear from you too!
