You're so talented! They look eerily real... not sure if I'd be able to eat them on top of a cupcake

Ricki said...

Okay, so you had me TOTALLY fooled! (blush). I just went back to take another look at the cupcakes, and of course that doesn't look like spinach. . . brilliant! :)

You know, the only reason I was able to rule out that it was a real sardine before the reveal were the markings on the tail--those I recognized as impressions in fondant--and also the eyes a little, but otherwise these were convincing enough that I had to look twice. Nice job!
