Tall Cupcake

I've seen quite a few youtube videos recently about 'Tall Cupcakes' - made by stacking 3 cupcakes on top of each other then covering them with sugarpaste. I had a few spare cupcakes in the kitchen this morning so decided to give it a try. Here's how it turned out:

It's actually quite easy to put together - probably easier than miniature cakes. If you want to try to make them yourself, there is a lovely step by step tutorial available by Sugarbloom cupcakes.

And of course, once you have covered your tall cupcake in sugarpaste, you are free to decorate it however you like. I made some ribbon roses and pearl strands out of flower paste. How will you decorate yours?

Vintage Roses and Bows

Hi All,

Here is a selection of sweet vintage-inspired cupcakes I have made this week - they are perfect little treats for an afternoon tea party.

The cupcakes are covered in sugarpaste and then decorated with roses, bows and blossoms I made with flowerpaste. To finish them off I added accents of royal icing dots and edible pearls.

Hope you are all having a nice week.
