Story

Featuring playful illustrations of retro fashion staples like flowy vintage dresses, sleek high heels, and structured handbags, these sweet, stylish treats are perfect for any women-centric gathering, from bridal showers to birthday celebrations for fashion lovers, adding a touch of whimsical elegance to any spread.

Ingredients

paper cupcakes (lemon, basic vanilla or coffee flavor (see p.18, p.26 or p.27)) 1 serving
fondant icing (see p.68, coffee flavor required for coffee cupcakes) 1 serving
royal icing (see p.16) 2 tbsp
gel food coloring (dark brown and pink) to taste

Instructions

1

Prepare the cake

Make cupcakes and let them cool. Coat with light pink fondant frosting (use coffee-flavored frosting for coffee cupcakes). Let dry for at least 1 hour.

2

Prepare the frosting

Tint half of the royal icing deep brown; if it is too thin, add sifted powdered sugar. Transfer it into a piping bag fitted with a fine flower tip. Place the remaining white royal icing into another piping bag.

3

Pipe decorative designs

Use the brown frosting to pipe 1950s-style dresses (with slim waists and full skirts) on some cupcakes, and pipe high heels and handbags on other cupcakes. Use the white frosting to fill in details such as dress patterns, bag clasps, and shoe stitching.
