OMIGOSH, these are the cutest cupcakes ever. Do you just pipe the elephants? Way cute.

very cute

I adore these...they are great!

Just love these cupcakes...my Mom would love this. So pretty.

They are so cute!!! Can you tell us what tips you used?

Thank you! They were a lot of fun to make. Just piped them onto the cupcake. I did use a sucker stick in each one though so they would sturdy especially for transporting.

oh my goodness! I LOVE them!! TOO cute! would you be willing to share you how piped them?

WOW...all buttercream. They look like fondant elephants! Fantastic job!

these are......fantastic!!!!!!!

Thanks!! The elephants are tip #5. Toe nails & eyes are number 2 and black part of eyes #1. Ears are #104 since i wanted large ears but you can use a small tip like 102. Pipe body over stick. Then do head and trunk in one continuous motion. Then legs, Then arms. Then ears w/large end of tip being the center. Make sure it connects or they will fall off! Add toenails, eyes Oh and the tail (tip 3). That's it!

these are so awesome! i thought they were fondant! GREAT job!

Awesome! what icing consistency did you used?

Thanks so much!!! I would have to say that the icing was probably the thinner side of medium consistency. That's not too much help, huh. It was a little thicker than what I would ice a cake with. :)

THEY LOOK GREAT

So cute!!!!!! Don't ya just love figure piping!!!! You did a grrrrreat job!

Those are just tooo adorable!!! Thanks for the instructions on how to pipe them! (Ignore my question about it in your other photo- didn't see this one until after I asked how to do them!)

Looks like I'm the 44th person to add them to my favorites. You should be proud!
