Decorating Cupcakes #46: Father’s Day “The backyard BBQ”
This will be the second (and last for this year) Father’s day cupcake. I saw a photo of a BBQ cake and then designed this cupcake, but then found “my” design on this website, not so original I guess, lol.

They give alternatives to different kind of food in this one (pork chops, skewers) and they use chocolate icing with orange sprinkles to make the “coals”. This is a good idea and I think was the missing “something” I was looking for.
They also use a toothpick and make “grill marks” on the food with black food colour, I also wish I would have done this too!
Apple Cupcake coming up tomorrow!

I loved watching this video when I was a kid. I have no clue why now, but back then I would watch it over and over. Hence, the video quality now is not the best, but overall it’s all right.

How to make the little gumdrop flowers:
I know it is inevitable that I get the question, what if I don’t have caramels or nilla wafers?
You can re-create the monkey face shape with light brown frosting or you can use starburst candies for a funky coloured monkey. Fondant or gumpaste is also an option.
You can also use sliced almonds (with or without the brown “skin” on them) for the ears.
I also didn’t mention that I added eyebrows to the second monkey to soften his “glare” he was scaring me a little, lol!!
I also added some frosting details to Abu’s hat.

Decorating Cupcakes #84: Frog
How to decorate a cupcake to look like a frog.
Kermit the frog is Muppet but he also appeared on Sesame Street when I was a kid, long before most of you were born I think.
From Wikipedia :
“Kermit the Frog is puppeteer Jim Henson’s most famous Muppet creation, first introduced in 1955. He is the protagonist of many Muppet projects, most notably as the host of The Muppet Show, and has appeared in various sketches on Sesame Street, in commercials and in public service announcements over the years. Kermit was performed by Henson until his death in 1990. Since then, Kermit has been performed by Steve Whitmire. He was voiced by Frank Welker in Muppet Babies and occasionally in other animation projects.”
