baby boy cupcakes

Thank you Kim for sharing your cute baby boy shower cupcake idea. You can find more of Kim’s party decorating ideas on her blog

Here’s how Kim made her baby boy cupcakes. “I made these cute little guys for a co-workers baby (boy) shower. I mixed my own fondant so that I could color it, but it’s so easy to find pre-colored fondant now in craft stores. I first rolled out some tan fondant into balls to make each head, then small little balls for the hands. I just used my fingernail to press in lines to create the fingers. Next I rolled out the blue fondant and cut a square (using a wax paper template I made) and used a butter knife to cut into the edges to make the “fringe”. Next I took a mechanical pencil and removed the eraser and washed it – then used where the eraser goes to punch out circles of the blue for the pacifier. I just wet everything to put them together. I wet my finger and picked up one white nonpareils from a dumped pile and placed it in the center of the blue circle pacifier and pushed a little in. When everything was assembled, I took an edible marker and pushed in a little to create an eyeball on each side… ta-done! Everyone loved them but only one person was brave enough to bite into the babies head! *gasp*”

These adorable baby boy cupcakes are too cute to eat. I think I would have to remove the baby fondant before eating
