As you may remember, I made some cupcakes for the Iron Craft week 15 challenge “Bunny or Chick?”<\/a> I shared the printables with you, so I decided I should share the recipe and tutorial too!<\/p>\n

Here’s the cupcake breakdown: Vanilla bean cupcake, Creme brulee cream filling, Vanilla bean buttercream frosting and Roasted PEEPs marshmallow fondant. It seems like a lot of work, but you can just do the parts you want, and get store-bought for the rest!<\/p>\n

\n

Step 1: Make Creme Brulee Cream Filling<\/h3>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\n

Step 2: Bake Vanilla Bean Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

\"Frosting\"<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 3: Make Vanilla Bean\/Creme Brulee Buttercream Icing<\/h3>\n

\n

\"Prepare<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 4: Prepare the Cupcakes for Filling<\/h3>\n

Using a knife or apple corer, take out the middles of the cupcakes. Cut this part in half. The top part will be used as a plug after you fill the cupcakes. The other part can be eaten!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Fill<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 5: Fill the Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

There are three ways you can do this – use a spoon, put it in a Ziploc and cut off a corner and then squeeze it out, or put it in an icing bag with a round tip. I used an icing bag because it gave me the most control.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Plug<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 6: Plug the Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

Now you put the little plugs on top. This helps keep the filling in, and provides a better surface for the frosting.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Frost<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 7: Frost the Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

You can be as creative as you want here. If you are going to put fondant over a majority of the frosting, you don’t need to be too detailed (you can just use a spatula or a large round tip with your icing bag). If you are going to put on smaller fondant shapes, then you can be as decorative as you want (I just used a large star tip with my icing bag).<\/p>\n

The batch of frosting made just enough for the cupcakes. You may decide you want to make another batch; it’s up to you.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Roasted<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 8: Make Roasted PEEP Fondant<\/h3>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Fondant<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 9: Decorate Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

As I made the fondant, I broke it up into batches to create different colors. Then I created some circles from biscuit cutters and flowers using fondant cutters as the base for my cupcake toppers. [“Stay Calm and PEEP On” Cupcake Toppers<\/a> PDF]<\/p>\n

Other ones I left fondant-free to I could stick on a PEEP or a disc of sugar I put under the broiler.<\/p>\n

Since I made 4 really big cupcakes, I rolled out fondant into an egg shape (I marbled two colors together for a dyed-egg effect), then used my fondant roller to add decorative patterns. [Pictured right]<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"PEEP<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 10: Decorate the Cupcake Tower<\/h3>\n

I had a plastic Wilton cupcake tower in my closet, so I decided to use it to showcase my PEEPs cupcakes. I went to my local craft store and bought some ruffles in coordinating colors. I think it really turned out well!<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

\"Dog<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/td>\n

\n

Step 11: Eat and Enjoy!<\/h3>\n

This is my favorite step! Even my dog liked the little piece of fondant she licked off the floor!<\/p>\n
