Bridal Shower Cupcakes

Pictured below are the cupcakes I wound up doing for a Bridal Shower earlier this year. Vanilla/Almond cupcakes with an almond buttercream icing and marshmallow fondant on top. I used a black royal icing for piping the "K"s on top of each and fondant for small flower accents on some of the cupcakes.



Mini-Cakes

I love the idea of single-serving cakes. I was commissioned to do cupcakes for a bridal shower and thought to myself, "Oh! This seems like suck a great opportunity to do mini-cakes!"

In all honesty, it wasn't the best opportunity - namely due to time constraints. (I found out about the bridal shower the week of and I had no time to really get to doing the cupcakes until the night before the shower.) But, I did do some "mock-up" mini-cakes!

Each mini-cake is two layers of vanilla cake, separated by buttercream icing, and finally covered in pink fondant.
