Disney princess cupcakes

By applecupcake on Sunday, July 25th, 2010

I found these amazing cupcakes on Flickr the other day and had to share them with you.  These princesses including Snow White, Ariel and Sleeping Beauty were made by Solange a Brazilian Cupcake Designer.

They are so perfect, but as you know, what is a princess without her accessories, so Solange made accessory cupcakes too!  I like this princess cupcake style – I just need my designer bag and sun glasses!

“Where the Wild Things Are” Cake and Cupcakes

These were created for a first birthday party that was ever-so-appropriately hosted at Woodland Park Zoo.   I like the mural-like frosting art on the cake, but am particularly tickled by the detailing on the cupcakes:

Rawr! Beware the wild cupcake!  They may be sweet, but they are fierce!

Race Car Cupcakes

Clever Cupcakes yet again prove they are veritable demigods of fondant with this cupcake set for a two-year old’s birthday party. The tire cupcake is my personal favorite – I think it really shows the care they put into their decoration. The theme of the birthday party was the Disney movie Cars. Since Clever Cupcakes doesn’t make a practice of copying the likenesses of trademarked characters, even in fondant, they use opportunities to be more creatively true to their assigned theme.

I thought these little guys were just charming as all get out. They were made up by Bittersweet Bakery for a little boy’s first birthday party.  Bittersweet is an outfit out in Chicago that has a full menu and does cakes and cupcakes for events like weddings and wee little birthday parties.
