In community album: Birthday Cakes
I made this zebra cake for a special little girl's third birthday party at the zoo.  It's my first fondant-covered cake and my first fondant bow.  I had a great time, so I'm sure I'll be using those techniques again in the future.  (As I learned, using matching icing to "glue" the bow together is a must.)  Cake is white/chocolate "zebra" marble with strawberry filling covered in fondant.  Zebra stripes, message banner, and pink decorations are also fondant.  Coordinating cupcakes are devil's food with buttercream icing.  Thanks to all the zebra/bow cakes on CC for the inspiration!

how did you get your cupcakes to swirl like that?? it looks awesome!

To get the swirl on the cupcakes, I placed a few small dollops of black icing randomly along the inside of a large pastry bag and then filled in the middle with pink icing. (Black goes a long way, so a few small dollops is all it takes.)
