Bridal Dress Cupcakes

I found this adorable Bridal Dress Cupcakes on pinterest from mrsjsteed.blogspot.com.  So of course you know I had to make it.  I found the cheap pearls and brooch at Walmart.

Next I decided to just cut an old box and wrap with it white tissue paper just so I didn't have to make a trip to Michaels since this is just a practice cake. 

I made white almond cupcakes with almond buttercream frosting just because I love the smell of almond flavoring!

Arrange the cupcakes like a dress and glue down with a little edible glue.

Then put frosting on with a 1M Wilton tip starting in the center so it looks like a rose and then fill in any spaces with the same tip making a star. 

Add the pearls and brooch and you have a darling bridal shower cake.  You could also add edible white pearls for decoration which is what I would do if I was making it for someone.  This would also be adorable for a girls birthday or girl baby shower in any color theme.

 

It's fun trying new things even though the pearls didn't sit the way I wanted them to.  That's why this is a practice cake!  It's a fun way to spend a rainy afternoon. 

 

Thanks for sharing in my adventures!  Until next time, Deana :)
