Pokemon Cupcakes

We decided to tackle fondant icing. This time it went a whole lot better than the first time. Although I think I need to experiment with new recipes in order to get a smoother paste. In my quick fondant research, I discovered that many claim that glycerin is a must have for fondant icing.

While I am not up to speed with the Pokemon Craze, I am proud of my first cupcake design without using a book! Instead, K. and I used pictures from Pokemon websites to create Pikachu, Piplup and Psyduck.

Piplup, Pikachu and Psyduck Pokemon Cupcakes

Piplup was the only character we did not make from fondant. Instead, we used marshmallows, melted icing, a Tim bit and sprinkles.
