My
youngest daughter is a massive fan of novelty cakes and spends a lot of her
allocated computer time watching youtube videos on how to ice cupcakes. We to make something special for each school bake sale and practising is one of her favourite activities.
One
of the most inspirational sites one the web is Hello Cupcake and today we have
had a go at their duck cupcakes.
We couldn't get hold of doughnut holes for the head and so made some cupcake pops for the head by crumbling up cake and mixing it in with some frosting, then rolling into little head shapes. The beaks and feet were made from starbursts (still want to call them Opal Fruits all these years on) and overall I think they turned out well. Evie's favourite bit was dipping them into the melted frosting - messiest bit of baking for a while!
Here's one of the little guys!
