Instructions
Prepare Cupcakes: Bake your favorite cupcakes and allow them to cool completely.
Ice Cupcakes: Generously ice each cupcake with your preferred cupcake icing, creating a smooth surface for decorating.
Roll Out Fondant: Roll out red fondant to your desired thickness. Use a circle cutter from Autumn Carpenter Cupcake Top Fondant Cutters to cut out a circle of fondant.
Shape Fondant: Place the fondant circle on top of the iced cupcake and gently shape it to cover the surface, resembling Santa's red suit.
Pipe Buttercream Ruffle: Using a piping bag fitted with a small round tip, pipe a buttercream ruffle down the center of the cupcake to mimic the fur trim on Santa's suit.
Create Belt: Roll out black fondant and use a polyblade to cut out a strip for the belt. Use modeling tools to create holes along the belt for authenticity.
Make Buckle: Form a buckle out of fondant using square cutters. Dust the buckle with gold luster dust for a shiny finish.
Attach Belt and Buckle: Adhere the buckle to the belt using a small amount of piping gel. Carefully position the belt across the center of the cupcake, securing it in place.
Final Touches: Adjust any details as needed and ensure everything is securely attached. Admire your adorable Santa Suit Decorated Cupcakes before serving and spreading holiday cheer with every bite!
These festive cupcakes are sure to delight both kids and adults alike, making them the perfect addition to your holiday celebrations.
