Rubber Duckie Cupcakes
Very Very Easy!
I purchased frosting already made from a cake supply store. I tinted it pink (hot pink was all they had right after Valentine's Day.)
I filled 3 different pastry bags--each with their own tip. I think I used round tip#s 5, 8 and 12.
The person that wanted me to make these had already purchased the rubber duckies. I think from a trading company in the orient. :)
I secured the ducks to the cupcake with a dollop of frosting--this worked great for "glue" as I was able to then use the ducks as a "handle" whenever I needed to move the cakes. While decorating I used the base of the cupcakes to handle them.
Using the largest tip I started piping the frosting around the outer edge of the base, working towards the center. I then used the 2 smaller tips to fill in gaps, add variety and build up bubbles around the duck. I also added a few bubbles on top of the duck heads.
When I began piping the bubbles it was hard not to create "tails" on them. It was suggested that I use a toothpick to correct this. Since I was going to be making 75 of these I just left them. After a few hours this corrected itself.
