DIY Raindrop and Cloud Cupcake Toppers

What You Need

  • A small ball of white fondant (also known as sugar paste). Fondant is readily available at baking supply and craft superstores, or you can make your own marshmallow fondant.
  • A small ball of blue fondant (I tinted my white fondant blue using gel food coloring in sky blue)
  • A small cloud cookie cutter (or a fondant flower cutter, which is what I used)
  • A teardrop shaped cookie cutter
  • A rolling pin
  • A small amount of cornstarch
  • An edible food decorating pen in black
DIY Raindrop and Cloud Cupcake Toppers

Step 1
Roll out your white fondant to about ¼ inch thick, using a little bit of cornstarch and your rolling pin. Using your cloud cutter or flower cutter, cut out “cloud” shapes.

Step 2
Using your edible food writing pen, create a simple face on your cloud shape. I like to just do two wide-set eyes and a simple mini-smile. I never do a nose because it takes away from the cuteness factor!
