Introducing... Sparkle and Pop Cupcakes!

These little beauties are still in the development phase, but I wanted to share them with you! I have called these engagement cupcakes 'Sparkle and Pop' cupcakes as they refer to the sparkle of the engagement ring and the pop of the fizz cork - yep these cakes contain the lovely bubbly stuff! Still experimenting with the method of making the edible icing ring and different ways of transferring a champagne flavour, but I'm very happy with the moist texture of the cake due to the drizzle syrup I came up with.

Edible Engagement Rings

This little bobby dazzler is one of my works in progress - I'd like to make engagement cupcakes and thought that the only thing I'd like to adorn my swirl of icing is a sparkling edible ring. They are divas to make though - particularly when trying to attach the edible diamond to the band itself without the sugar paste crumbling. Cupcakes to be made this afternoon, so pop back to my blog for an update later today...
