Mahjong cupcakes

I have always wanted to do those fondant decorated cupcakes (since eons ago), but never never muster up enough courage. Looks just too daunting for me.
I "played" with fondant once, did a few really simple "faces" cupcakes but that was it. Never touch fondant since.

It's Mommy's Day today, and the village is having a celebration. My villagers are always so supportive, why not make them guinea pigs? :P

I made cake pops for Ashley's last birthday celebration, and I really love the moist texture of the cake. Decided to use back the same cakepop recipe but instead of making pops, I stuffed the cake into little muffin cups instead. Bought these cute little polka dot muffin cups from Phoon Huat, I added on yellow ribbons for the finishing touch ^^

My momma highness will be there.. so I decided to go with a Mahjong themed cupcake for today.
(errm, none of the rest of the villagers know how to play MJ)


Before decoration. The cake do look so moist & yummy, right? :P


I don't play mj.. I had to google for a set of winning tiles. I made a set of 3 Great Scholars (14 tiles), MJ players should know hor? There are chips + dices too ^^


My chinese writing is horrendous. Horribly horrendous.


I made the fondant decoration only last nite.. my chips are still a little droopy..


I made 18 cupcakes (14 tiles + 1 dice + 1 chips). Had 2 left, added hearts sprinkles ^^


All packed and ready to go =)


Have an awesome Mother's Day with your moms & children, everyone.
HUAT ah!!!!
