Much like fondant Bullys or fondant Curious Georges, these are a fun way to play with fondant. It’s easy…honest.

ingredients:
fondant
black gel dye

I get a lot of emails from people saying they are afraid of fondant. I get it, I do. I didn’t touch it for years, but it turns out it is such great stuff to work with, you can really be creative and come up with a lot of cute things. This is a good way to start with fondant because it’s just two colors. Black and white.

Dye a small amount of the fondant black. I like to use gloves so it doesn’t get everywhere. I ALWAYS use gel dye. The powder, the god-awful liquid, all that stuff is crap, but that’s just my opinion. Gel dye is wonderful, you don’t need much and it’s only 97 cents.

Start by taking a small ball of white fondant. I just shape it with my fingers until I get the head just right. I usually do sketches beforehand, but you can just print out a picture and follow it, even use it as a template if you want.


Then take a TINY piece of the black, make a small ball for the nose. A flat slab for the ear, and finally just roll a teeeeeeny piece to lay on the eyes, eyebrows and the smile.

A simple black and white palette gives you a nice looking Snoopy profile.

When you need to move your finished fondant design, I found that an offset spatula works wonders. I keep them on parchment paper in a sealed plastic container. It’s good to do the fondant designs ahead of time, it saves you time and stress and then on the day of serving, simply plop them on top of your finished cupcake. The end. Stress free, baby.

Play around with the faces, expressions, just have fun. Fondant is great stuff -very forgiving so if you don’t quite get the right shape, don’t fret, just roll it up and try again.
