How to make

You Will Need

* Betty Crocker Velvety Vanilla Buttercream Style Icing 400g

* Leaf Green Colour Splash Gel 25g

* Renshaw White Ready to Roll Icing 250g

* Renshaw Ready to Roll Pink Icing 250g

Step 1

To make the bunnies, roll a ball of white icing for the body (about the size of a Brussel sprout) and a large pea-sized ball for the tail. Stick the tail to the body with a little cooled, boiled water.

Step 2

To make the feet, roll two balls each the size of a cherry, shape them both into teardrop shapes and make two indentations with a cocktail stick to make the toes.

Step 3

Thinly roll out the pink icing and using the round plunger cutters, cut out six tiny circles and two slightly bigger circles. Attach the circles to the feet with water.

Step 4

Colour your buttercream green and ice your cupcakes with a palette knife, smoothing the top.

Step 5

Place the body on top of the cupcake, and surround the body with some broken biscuit crumbs to look like soil.

Step 6

Attach the feet with a little blob of royal icing, and embellish with icing carrot decorations.
