Baby Shower Cupcakes

Any of your favorite recipes can be used for the cupcakes. To make the baby flower faces, dye fondant the colors of your choice. The flowers are cut out with fondant daisy cutters. The faces are made by rolling little balls of peach colored fondant. The indentations for the eyes and mouth are made with the end of a straw. For the mouth, hold the straw parallel to the face and push up a little which gives the face some shape. Poke a hole with a toothpick where you want the nose and then glue a very small ball of peach fondant over it with vanilla extract. After the flowers have been cut out and have dried a little shape them in two layers around the face. The leaves are made from green fondant and cut out with a leaf cutter then veins are drawn on with a toothpick.
