My cousin is pregnant with her very first baby. On the weekend just gone, she had a baby shower for him. This was also my very first baby shower. I wanted to do a little something special for her as a gift, as I wanted to give her something more than just the Baby Bunting voucher my Aunt said she wanted. Of course, any excuse to bake is a good excuse. Hence, these little ones were born:
The cupcakes are almond flavoured, covered with vanilla buttercream and decorated with fondant. I had lots of fun experimenting with expressions. I did one sad one, but I don't like crying baby cupcakes so I refrained from doing those. I tried for a gender neutral theme, as it was only on the weekend that I learnt the sex of the baby. Regardless, I still wanted to do both genders as one can be boring.
I popped them into a Wilton cupcake box, decorated with ribbon and made a tag to match the hand-made card then sent them off to the delivery room!
