Happy St Patrick's Day Cupcake Gift Box

A customer from Brisbane wanted to say Happy St Patrick's Day to her brother in law who lives here in Mackay & what better way than with a yummy cupcake gift box!


They were heaps of fun to make, I just love making specific themed cupcake toppers like this.


So this is what I designed & made, it features leprechauns hats, pots of gold on a rainbow, clovers, Irish flags & pints of Guinness all made out of marshmallow fondant.



The cake for the cupcakes was 'Midnight Delight' dark chocolate mud cake (I did suggest a Guinness & chocolate cake in keeping with the Irish theme but she thought that her sister would prefer straight chocolate) topped off with a generous amount of divine Baileys Irish Cream buttercream (which of course I had to tint a pale green colour).


Happy St Patrick's Day everyone!
