Cupcakes, Big and Small

Marble cupcakes with chocolate whipped cream frosting. Each topped with a fondant snowflake brushed with pearl dust for a little sparkle. I made 3 dozen of these at the last second for my husbands co-workers. It was a fight against the snow during the holidays this year, but they turned out great and everyone was more than pleased.
These were done for a tasting, white and marble cakes with raspberry preserves, raspberry mousse and chocolate mousse fillings. They were each topped with buttercream frosting and a fondant flower and leaf. This tasting later turned into the Jungle Cake I made for a 1st birthday.

Red Velvet with whipped cream frosting and a single gumpaste flower. These were designed for a retirement homes afternoon tea party. These bit size cupcakes were accompanied by chocolate dipped strawberries.
