Today during Conference sessions we made these cool fondant decorated cupcakes. I read about them on Pioneer Woman and decided to give it a try. I found a great fondant recipe on the internet, and much to my surprise, it worked! I had never even tasted fondant before so I had no idea how it should turn out. This whole thing appealed to me because it looked more like a craft project than a baking project. The kids had a great time creating the designs. It was kind of like playing with playdough only more edible. However, when we ate the cupcakes, we just peeled off the fondant. It's better as a decoration.
Here's the whole bunch arranged into a heart by Erin.
Kevin decorated the cupcakes on the top left and the bottom right.
Erin did the one on the top right.
Rachel's cupcake is on the bottom left.
Camille did the flower with the pink center.

I feel an Ashley shower treat in the making! Way to go! You always have just jumped in and created wonderful things and learned new exciting creations. You are amazing. Wish I was going to be in town!
The above comment is not Kyle, it is Sharla!!! Kyle would never say something like that, or comment on fondant cupcakes. There has to be a fish in the picture for Kyle to even view it!!
You are amazing! yummmmmmmmy!
I loved Sharla's comment above. I totally read Kyle's message and thought...huh? So I re-read it a second time and was still stumped! Then I read Shonka's comment and it all made sense! Too funny.
