Just wonderful. I love the little chicks. How do you get your fondant to sit so smoothly on the cupcakes? And what do you make your fondant out of?

@bellabambina18 I actually buy pre-made fondant. It's a big time saver - it takes me long enough to decorate cakes without having to make fondant! It's important to get the base icing (eg buttercream or ganache) as smooth as possible first before putting the fondant on, and to handle the fondant as little as possible. Planet Cake also recommends use of a 'flexi scraper' to smooth the fondant - I cut one out of a flexible smooth plastic chopping mat (small rectangle with rounded corners).

wow! I love your baby cupcakes; but how did you get the eyes...thanks for this video.

@VaNn3sSa2009 Thanks for commenting. The eyes are tiny balls of black fondant (I buy pre-coloured black fondant).
