Valentine Cupcakes

February 8, 2013 by Sharon Zambito 12 Comments

Hello Sugar Babies!

I just could not let Valentine’s day go by without sharing a little love with you guys. You all fill my heart with so much joy, I want to give a little back to you.

 

I heart you.

 

These sweet cupcakes are really easy. Just roll out your fondant and cut heart shapes with your favorite cutters. Cut out some red blossoms as well. The metal cutters pictured above I have had forever and have no idea where they came from. But I can tell you that the black heart cutters are made by Patchwork and can be found here.

 

 

While the fondant is still soft, impress your message of love with plastic hobby stamps. Note: please make sure your stamps are food safe if the item will be eaten!

 

 

Let that dry thoroughly (overnight). Then dust the impressions with a darker shade of pink petal dust with a thin pointy brush. Then a dusting of luster dust in your shade of choice finishes off the piece.

 

 

 

These cupcakes were baked in the heart shaped silicone baking cups by Wilton. I got them at Hobby Lobby. I love those cups! I use them for all kinds of stuff. (And a little birdie told me that we will have a video in the members’ area that shows you how to make a stunning dessert with these 🙂

 

 

If you don’t have stamps, or just don’t feel like doing that, you can just make pretty heart toppers for your cupcakes.

 

 

 

Love is in the air.

 

I hope you will 🙂

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Sharon

    Absolutely beautiful. Always looking for new ideas and you always manage to inspire me. I do have a question though. I find that sometimes my buttercream is extremely sweet. What type of frosting would you use in place of it, and do you have a good recipe for it? Thanks…

    Hi Sharon, I’ve made fondant toppers for my cupcakes before they were letters that I cut out. However, even though I let them dry overnight after I placed them on the cupcakes they got soft and folded over. What am I doing wrong? These hearts are so cute and I would love to make these.

      hey Kelly, maybe they were not dry enough…. did you add tylose to them? because sometimes the tylose will absorb the grease and it softens the piece.
