Frozen Mania.

   Disney's Frozen has grabbed our family. When it was released on dvd we watched it daily for about three weeks. Sometimes twice. We sing the songs. I have the music on a USB in my car for goodness sake. 'ooo-ooo family!' is a popular greeting!

   When my number one niece's birthday came round it was not really surprising that a request for frozen cupcakes was forthcoming. Blue and white swirly icing not a problem. Vanilla sponge easy. Crowns and snowflakes, ok. Olaf? Hmmm.

Here is a quick photo tutorial for my Olaf cake toppers. Not perfect replicas but if a child is a critical audience, well these passed muster with our critics!

Divide royal icing

roll into cylinders and a head shape

Using a smile shaped tool, press a mouth and use the back to indent where the eyes will go.

stick feet together with edible glue

top with the body

then the torso and the head

         

lay down for the glue to dry

                         

I had some black pearls left from halloween, and some orange sugar chips for the nose

the eyes are edible ink pen and the arms are flower stamens made for sugar flowers
