Although I have never done it before, I know when fondant, when left to dry, they'll become nice and hard. so the idea was to make little Hoot faces and stick them on those little cup cakes with a little vanilla butter icing.
OMG. It took me an entire weekend to make the 40 little owl faces...
Here's a little sample I have made.. I wasn't entirely happy with his brow, though i'm quietly quite please with how the little beak was made (with a little nip of the scissors)
Did you know the collective noun for owls is "parliament"?! And when there's a "parliament" of them, you can really, almost hear the murmuring...
And it's all done! being left to dry for a few days.
looking well please on top of cupcakes on the day.
