Let’s make raindrop and puffy cloud edible fondant cupcake toppers! This is an easy DIY you can do with your little ones. These cupcake toppers are a fun idea for a weather-themed birthday party or for a baby shower for a little baby boy. Drip drop, here comes happy rain!
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
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!
Step 3
Roll out your blue fondant and cut out teardrop shapes.
Step 4
Bring your raindrop to life with a swift and simple face! Well hello there, Drippy Guy!
Step 5
Place your cloud and raindrop toppers on frosted cupcakes. It’s party time!
Have fun at your cloudy rain party, everyone! See you again real soon with another cakey DIY!
