Fishing Birthday Cupcakes

Here we have the fishing cupcakes that I created to accompany the fishing birthday cake which was ordered recently.


The flavours were the same as in the larger cake, 'Blondie' (vanilla bean butter) cake with caramel Swiss meringue buttercream.

For the cupcake toppers I used homemade marshmallow fondant which I marbled to make it appear like the sea to create discs to use as a base for all the 3D creatures etc.

There were some crabs, fish & stingray (which were finished with lustre dust to appear more fish like), happy birthday messages (featuring seaweed & rocks), star fish & fishing rods, all of which appeared on the matching cake.

I think the crabs were pretty cute!
