Floral Cupcakes with Vintage Tea Cups

 I was asked to create some new cupcake design based on vintage teacups for a wedding this weekend. The bride had been collecting vintage teacups and wanted cupcakes top sit inside each cup. Each cupcake was individually designed to match the cup and the cupcakes were all baked in gold cupcake cases to match the gold rims of the teacups.















Here they are set up at the venue.

Congratulations Melissa and Miguel!
