Spring is sprung!

This week’s blog post has been written by one of our tutors, Becky. (We featured her work a few weeks ago here).

Becky will be hosting our sell-out 'springtime cupcakes' workshop next Friday in Warwick. She will show workshop attendees how to create these little beauties! Aren't they just fabulous?!

Places on this workshop sold out fast, but just in case you missed out, we thought we would bring you a special preview and show you how to make the very cute rabbit bottom cupcake at home. (It also happens to be our favourite one!)

To make Becky's rabbit bottom cupcake, you will need:

·         Non stick mat

·         Non stick rolling pin

·         Edible glue

·         Clean paint brush

·         Pink/white/brown sugarpaste (or colours of your choice)

·         A circular cutter, or use small writing nozzles for cutting smaller circles

Step 1: 

Form two balls of white sugarpaste and flatten to make two feet shape approximately 1.5cm in length

Step 2:  

Roll out pink sugarpaste and cut 2 larger circles and 3 smaller circles for the paws. Stick on using edible glue. 

Set aside to dry.

Step 3:  

Form a small ball of white sugarpaste for the rabbit’s tail. Use the end of the writing nozzle to make circle indents to create the “fluffy” look. 

Set aside to dry

Step 4:  

Form a ball of brown sugarpaste about the size of a walnut and flatten the bottom on your mat.

Step 5:

Glue the feet and the tail onto the brown body. 

Step 6:

Pop your finished rabbit’s bottom onto your cupcake and decorate with flowers to make it pretty!

Hey presto! A very fetching rabbit cupcake! Perfect for making with the kids in the Easter holidays.
