Pretty cupcakes..

Hi
I have been so busy catching this last week i have not had much time to craft...sadly ,so i thought i would share a pic of some cakes we made a couple of weeks ago,they are so pretty and so easy to do...I bought ready made undecorated fairy cakes...i know lazy or what,!!!
you make some butter icing and coat the top of the fairy cake with a good layer ,then take some coloured sugar and put it into a little bag,then cut small marshmallows across on the diagonal...[not the tiny marshmallows that you put on top of hot choc...the next size up]
where you have made the cut is now sticky so pop them all into the bag of coloured sugar and the sugar sticks to the sticky surface...take them out of the sugar and decorate the cakes to look like flower petals...so quick and easy and i bet the kids would love to have a go.
