Paris-Themed Bridal Shower Cupcakes

Someone is getting married!



No, not us! But, the bridal shower is a Parisian theme! Very cool right?!? Naturally, the Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe come to mind. So we took on the challenge and managed to create them in fondant. This was no easy task, it took some thinking... but we're pretty pleased with the way they came out. The Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe were all handmade - we couldn't find a Eiffel Tower and Arc De Triomphe fondant cutter unfortunately. These decorations also needed to be dried on powdered sugar, otherwise the tower will droop! And more sugar doesn't hurt, right?


The pink and green buttercream colours are inspired from Ladurée, a patisseries in Paris.


Bridal showers are all about the amour!


And who can forget the ooh la la!


The famous Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe!


The fondant decorations are resting on vanilla buttercream and chocolate cupcakes.


What a beautiful sunny day for a bridal shower! Sigh...


Leftover buttercream pour moi!
