Summer must be around the corner, as I seem to be making lots of sugarpaste decorations with bees and ladybugs. The lady bug cupcakes were Lemon with Vanilla Buttercream.
The bee cupcakes below were almond sour cream cupcakes with honey buttercream. This isn't a regular flavor on my menu - I was recipe testing. Next week, I will be testing out coconut cake and dulce du leche.
This cake was a 1st birthday cake topped with a tiara, some flowers and a couple bees - the colors and design were copied from a photo the client provided. I just added the tiara as it was a princess themed party and also a sugarpaste character of her daughter. The bottom tier was chocolate fudge cake and the top was vanilla butter cake.

oh my god those cupcakes are SO CUTE! how did you make the bees/ladybugs?
ReplyDeleteVeggieVixen - The bees and ladybugs are made out of sugarpaste/ gumpaste. To decorate the ladybugs, I used tiny pieces of black fondant. For the bees, I started with black fondant, but ended up painting the stripes on with edibile color.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I'll put together another tutorial - I haven't done one in a while!
those bees are my favorite! sooo adorable.
