Shaun The Sheep Cake And Cupcakes
Shaun the Sheep cake with sheep cupcakes for my daughter's 4th birthday.
The cake is lemon with lemon curd and strawberry puree with lemon IMBC. The cupcakes are chocolate with vanilla IMBC.
The sheep stack is made from cereal treats covered in royal icing with gumpaste heads and legs. The heads on the cupcakes are fondant (since kids will likely eat them and fondant tastes better).
I love this idea. Can i ask did you use supports through the sheep or did you just stick them together with royal icing?
I used toothpicks in the legs in order to stick them into the sheep below.
Thank you. I wasnt sur if i needed a skewer all the way through from the top sheep to the bottom or just between adjacent sheep. Thank you
It was fine with adjacent sheep. The cereal treats are so light that there isn't a ton of weight there (as long as you don't glop on too much royal icing).
Brilliant thank you. Never made or used royal icing before so il get googling that 1. Theres a 1st for everything.lol
