Tigger Tail Cupcakes

Recipe Ingredients

12 of your favorite chocolate cupcakes
8 oz. white fondant, divided
5-6 drops yellow gel food coloring, divided
3 drops red gel food coloring
Cornstarch for rolling
Small bowl of water
1 stick butter, softened
2 cups confectioners sugar
2 tbsp milk
Black decorating icing

Recipe Directions

If you baked your own cupcakes, be sure that they are completely cool before you start decorating.

Take 5 oz. of your white fondant, and color it with 2-3 drops of yellow gel food coloring. Knead until fondant is completely colored (hint: put cornstarch on your fingers to avoid sticking).

Sprinkle a clean working surface with cornstarch. Add cornstarch to a rolling pin and roll out your fondant so that it’s about ¼ of an inch thick.

Use a circular cookie cutter that’s about 3 inches in diameter, and cut out 12 fondant circles Set aside.

Color your remaining 3 oz. of white fondant with 3 drops of yellow and 3 drops of red. Knead until completely tinted.

Roll into 1 inch spheres and shape into longer cylinders, about 3 inches in length and half an inch wide.

Give each cylinder a little curl and place water on the back. Attach a Tigger tail onto each of your yellow fondant circles.

Using a stand mixer, beat together butter, confectioners sugar and milk on slow. Gradually increase the speed to high. These ingredients will make up your buttercream frosting. It is complete once ingredients are well-combined, smooth, and form semi-stiff peaks.

Apply buttercream frosting on each cupcake with an offset spatula. Carefully place your fondant creations on each cupcake and enjoy!

Disney’s Christopher Robin

Madeline Robin (Bronte Carmichael), Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor), Evelyn Robin (Hayley Atwell), Eeyore, Piglet and Tigger in Disney’s live-action adventure CHRISTOPHER ROBIN.

In the heartwarming live action adventure Disney’s CHRISTOPHER ROBIN, the young boy who embarked on countless adventures in the Hundred Acre Wood with his band of spirited and lovable stuffed animals, has grown up and lost his way. Now it is up to his childhood friends to venture into our world and help Christopher Robin remember the loving and playful boy who is still inside.

Bronte Carmichael plays Madeline Robin, the adventurous daughter of Christopher Robin in Disney’s heartwarming live action movie CHRISTOPHER ROBIN.

Now grown up, Christopher Robin is stuck in a job where he is overworked, underpaid and facing an uncertain future. He has a family of his own, but his work has become his life, leaving little time for his wife and daughter. Christopher has all but forgotten his idyllic childhood spent with a simple minded, honey-loving stuffed bear and his friends.

Christopher Robin (Ewan McGregor) with his long time friend Winnie the Pooh in Disney’s live-action adventure CHRISTOPHER ROBIN.

But when he is reunited with Winnie the Pooh, now tattered and soiled from years of hugs and play, their friendship is rekindled, reminding Christopher of the endless days of childlike wonder and make believe that defined his youth, when doing nothing was considered the very best something.

Following an unfortunate mishap with Christopher Robin’s briefcase, Pooh and the rest of the gang including Piglet, Eeyore and Tigger, step out of the forest and venture into London to return the crucial possessions…because best friends will always be there for you.
