How To Make Easy Farm Animal Cupcakes

Roll out your green and blue fondant and cut out circles the same size as your cupcakes. If you don’t have a circle cutter, you may find a cup a similar size. Next, cut these circles in half.

Spread a little jam onto the cupcake to help the fondant stick and place the half circles on the cupcake as can be seen above. Smooth with your hands or a cake smoother if you have one.

I used the wavy cutter to make the sheep’s body. If you don’t have one, you could just form some white fondant into a ball and flatten it into a disc. Stick the shape onto the cupcake leaving enough space at the bottom for the legs.

Take some black fondant and form it into a bean shape, which is slightly smaller at one end. Stick this on the body, slightly above centre.

Next, take four small pieces of black fondant and roll them into little tubes. Stick two of them underneath the body to be the legs. Flatten the next two and stick them either side of the head for ears.

Roll some white fondant into small balls and stick them on top of the head.
