Superhero Cupcakes
Superhero logos are simple clean designs, just the image and the colors can tell you instantly who’s who. The icons look great on the chest of a super suit and even better on top of cupcakes.
These toppers are made out of fondant, simply roll it out, cut out pieces and place on top of cupcakes. With a little time and practice your super power could easily become decorating with fondant!
Superhero Cupcakes
Ingredients:
various colored fondant
cupcakes, baked and frosted
you’ll need:
2.5″ biscuit cutter
clean x-acto knife
Instructions:
Start with a template by printing off an image from the internet. Scale it down to fit within a 2.5″ circle (a typical cupcake size) and carefully cut out.
With a clean x-acto knife lay the template on the fondant and proceed to cut out the pieces.
Use a 2.5 inch biscuit cutter to cut out the base toppers. Use a small dab of water on the back of the logos, then place on top of the base circles. Keep in an airtight container or use immediately by placing on top of baked, frosted cupcakes.
Ze zien er heerlijk uit!
I want to see you do a Spider-Man logo. That one is messed up with the webbing.
Great way of making the logos. Good job!
OMG.
i want a spider man cupcake!
What fondant recipe do you use? I have had so much trouble finding one that works for me
@Sam
I have been buying my fondant and been dyeing it by hand.
My brother, a super hero fanatic, would LOVE these.
Would you be interested in selling a couple dozen of these?
Ovaltine cupcakes? Is the recipe here on your site?
A trick to dye the fondant is to roll it like a snake and then fold it in half. Keep repeating process until one colour is formed. I found doing so cut the time in half.
hi,
what kind of icing did you use before placing the fondants in the cucpake?
Wow, awesome blog layout! How long have you been blogging for? you made blogging look easy. The overall look of your web site is wonderful, let alone the content material!
You shouldn’t mix your Marvel with you DC comics! And why chose only Marvel super women? What is wrong with the Black Canary or Hawk Girl?
Hi Jenn – Ahhh I just LOVE LOVE these cupcakes! Question, what fondant do you recommend using? I’ve tried to use Duff’s buttercream fondant and I noticed that when I’m trying to do cut outs the fondant feels too soft for the cuts. Do you let yours sit out to harden and then cut? Sorry for all the questions!
Your website is awesome, I’ve bookmarked it and will be here on a daily basis :0) can’t wait to try out some recipes.
@elisa I buy my fondant from a specialty kitchen store but you can also buy Wilton fondant at the craft store or online.
Thanks for the inspiration! I made something similar for my son’s birthday & they were a big hit.
Will you share (sell?) your template? I’ve never worked with fondant before, but I am willing to give it a go.
