Have you seen these yet? Aren’t they darling? These are Tiffany cupcakes! Tiffany cupcakes are based on the universally recognizable company that most women dream about; hoping to get that “little blue box” for every major holiday and occasion. These cupcakes are quite simple to make yet make quite an impact. They are just perfect for bridal showers and birthdays. Here’s what you’ll need to make them……
First, bake some cupcakes using your favorite cupcake recipe. Allow to cool.

Then, prepare your tastiest buttercream frosting. You will need to cover the top of the cupcakes with frosting prior to covering them with fondant.

Next, as mentioned, cover the tops of your cupcakes with frosting. You will need about three-four tablespoons per cupcake. You don’t want to put too much frosting though, or the icing will ooze out from underneath the fondant. Yet if you put too little, your cupcakes will look flat and you’ll want to make sure they have a nice dome. It’s best to experiment to see what works best for you. After you’ve covered your cupcakes with buttercream, you’ll want to prepare the fondant. Tint your fondant “Tiffany blue” and roll out to about an 1/8 inch in thickness. Use a large pastry circle cutter to cut out your circles to place on top of the cupcakes.

Next, make your cute Tiffany bows! Roll out a few strips of white fondant about an inch in thickness. To form the bow loops, gather the two strips together to a size that you prefer and bring together to a central point forming a bow. Use a dab of water to allow them to stick together. Add a small piece of fondant around the center of the two loops to form the center of the bow. Put paper towel or cotton in the two bow loops while they dry so that they don’t sag. You’ll want nicely formed bow loops that can stand up nicely on their own.

Lastly, add a 1 1/2 inch strip of fondant across the diameter of the cupcake on top of your blue fondant. Place the dried bow loops on top of the strip, centering it and securing with a dab of water. Finally, sit back and daydream about your little blue box!! Until it arrives, enjoy all of your cute cupcake handiwork and get ready for lots of ooohs and ahhhs when folks see these little beauties!
