Baby Shower CupcakesBaby Shower Cupcakes are a perfect idea. Little cakes for a little baby. They also make a beautiful gift to take to a new mother in hospital. Box six cupcakes with a small gift and it becomes a present that is suitable for both mother and infant. Make up towelling cupcakes and sock cupcakes to continue your theme and pop them in as your gift. You can roll up any article of clothing, tie it with a bow and it looks like a cupcake. A teddy bear or soft toy will really complete this gorgeous gift. Gift sets make a great work at home craft business, on either a full-time or part-time basis. Check out the website great home based business ideas for ideas on how to turn a hobby into a business venture. For a shower, individual cakes can be frosted in pastel pinks or blues if the sex is known, or a combination of soft colours for anyone who is waiting to find out! Wrap the cakes in fabric "cupcake cosies" and keep in place with ribbon fastened with a diaper pin. 
A simple
buttercream frosting
or
fondant
is all that is needed for these cakes to look gorgeous. If you have time, add a fondant heart or cupcake topper, which will really complete the look!
I find that if you intend to cover the entire cake in fondant it is better to slice the top of the cupcake so that it is level and then turn the cupcake upside down, so that the top becomes the bottom and vice-versa. It will give you a much better surface to work with. Have you given a gift that involves cupcakes? We'd love you to tell us what you did and even send in a photo to be included on this page.
