Baby Shower Cupcakes

I made these cupcakes for a baby shower on Saturday at the request of my client. The color scheme for this baby shower was green, orange and yellow. My client mentioned to me that she ordered favors for her guests in the shape of a pea in a pod and thought it would be cool to match the cupcakes to the favors .. and I agreed! I molded the peas in the pod out of fondant and added a baby's head in the center of each one. I wanted them all to be a little different in shape and size to give them character.

Each baby got a little piece of hair which I curled and placed on the top of their heads. Everyone at the shower thought the red hair was great especially since the soon-to-be father has red hair :) ... I had no idea!! That's the truth. Also,I made sure to give the babies some color on their cheeks with pink luster dust.

I think these cupcakes look really cute and I had so much fun making them. I was so excited to hear the cupcakes were a hit and that I could make something everyone would enjoy.
