Teddy Bear Cupcakes

These cute and friendly teddy bear cupcakes are a fun and creative way to use the

Cake Star Push Easy Shapes Cutters. Perfect for baby showers!

1 Once your cupcakes are baked and

cooled, cut the tops off so they are level.

2 Roll out your 250g pack of white sugar

paste and cut 6 x 63mm circles. Use edible

glue to add these to the top of your

cupcakes.

3 Cut your 100g of white modelling paste

into 4 portions weighing 60g, 20g, 10g

and 10g.

4 For Baby Girl cupcakes, colour the

portions of modelling paste as follows:

60g in Raspberry, 20g in Pink, 10g in Pale

Pink and 10g leave uncoloured/white.

5 For Baby Boy cupcakes: 60g in Peacock

, 20g in Blue (medium shade) 10g in Blue

(pale shade) and 10g leave uncoloured/

white.

6 For Unisex cupcakes: 60g in Dark Brown

(medium shade), 20g in Latte, 10g in Soft

Caramel and 10g leave uncoloured/white.

These instructions will continue with the

baby girl cupcakes as the example.

For baby boy or unisex colours simply

refer to the list above.

7 Roll out your portions of coloured

modelling paste and cut out the following:

Raspberry - 6 large circles using the single

circle cutter and 6 large circles using the

triple circle cutter.

Pink - 12 large and six medium circles using

the triple circle cutter.

Pale Pink - 6 medium hearts using the triple

heart cutter and 6 small circles using the

triple circle cutter.

White/uncoloured - 6 medium hearts using

the triple heart cutter.

8 Use a little edible glue to stick the large

raspberry circles onto your cupcakes, slightly

off centre to allow space for the ears. This

will be your teddy bear’s face.

9 For the ears, simply cut your remaining

raspberry circles in half and use edible glue

to add two of these to each cupcake.

10 Cut a small portion from the edges of

your large pink circles, as pictured, and join

together to create the muzzle. Add one to

each of your teddy bear faces and secure

using edible glue.

11 To create the chin, remove two quarters

from each of your pink medium sized circles

• this should leave
  you with you with
  a semi circle with
  curved edges
  (see picture for
  guidance). Secure
  this under the muzzle with edible glue.
  12 Remove a portion from the bottom of
  the medium white heart. Using the veining
  tool from your Cake Star decorating kit,
  score a line down the middle to form two
  eyes. Add the eyes to your teddy bear
  faces, just above the muzzle.
  13 For the inner ears simply cut all of the
  small pale pink circles in half and add to
  outer. For the nose, place the medium pale
  pink hearts noses on the muzzle, slightly
  over the bottom of the eyes to cover the
  joint. Secure with edible glue.
  14 Finally, dot the pupils with the black
  edible pen to complete your teddy bear
  cupcakes. CDS 1
