Bunny cupcakes by Selby


I got my first order for cupcakes!!! Yes, a friend asked me to make 50 cupcakes for her daughter's birthday that will turn to be 7 years old. When I asked what kind of theme should be the cupcakes, her request was simple, as long as it's pink and cute then her daughter will like it.

First, I was thinking to make little bears with pink fondant as the base on the top of the cupcakes but then at the end, I decided to make bunny fondant with pink/purple/white flowers and the base is green as it resembles to grass. Bunnies love to play in a garden where there're a lot of grasses and little flowers around, rite? hehehe...

Well, to make the bunnies, it's quite time consuming but I had fun :)


This is how the bunny cupcakes look in the box. Mom helped me to make the boxes that can contain 25 cupcakes in each box.
The middle part, I left it empty to put the birthday candle.

Hopefully, my friend's daughter will like her birthday bunny cupcakes *crossing fingers*
