Instead of a cake, Little Bean decided she wanted cupcakes for her birthday party. She wanted a pretty cupcake dress and I found one online that she loved.
I started by organizing them how I would want them to look.
Then I realized this was a large sized creation and I would not be able to use my standard cake carrier. I had to get creative so I decided to use this:
And this:
I cut the box and opened it up to lay flat on the cupcake pan:
And then covered it with foil.
I'm pretty brilliant. Lol.
And it was pretty much easy going from there. I made a double batch of butter cream icing and decorated the first 12 cupcakes white. Then I progressively added more pink to give the dress and "ombre" look.
Then I of course had to start making it more "Princessy" for my special girl.
I put some saran wrap across the middle cupcakes and put the bedazzled belt across. It was something I found the scrapbooking section of Walmart. I put a dab of icing on the "belt" and put the fake flower on high enough that it would not touch the cupcakes. I picked up a tiara and wand set at the dollar store and washed them in hot soapy water. I used them as accents to complete the full princess look:
Ava and all here little girlfriends from school just loved the cupcake dress and had a fabulous time at the party!
Now to start prepping for the boys cake!
