Wedding Dress Cupcakes

You can bring these cute cupcakes with wedding dresses to any bridal shower or event with a wedding theme. With a moist white cake base and a creamy buttercream frosting that tastes like almonds, they are both pretty and tasty. You can change the color of the bridal dress to fit your theme, and if you want to add a little glitz, you can use edible silver glitter.

Ingredients:

• 1 box white cake mix
• 3 large eggs
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 4 cups powdered sugar
• 2-3 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon almond extract
• White fondant
• Food coloring for bridal dress color
• Silver edible glitter optional

Instructions:

Warm up the oven to 350F 175C and put paper liners in a cupcake pan

Mix the eggs, vegetable oil, water, vanilla extract, and white cake mix together in a bowl

Mix everything together well

Fill each cupcake liner about two thirds of the way to the top with cake batter

After the oven is hot, bake the cupcakes for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick stuck in the middle comes out clean

On a wire rack, let the cupcakes cool all the way down

In a different bowl, use a mixer to make the softened butter smooth

Add the powdered sugar, milk, and almond extract one cup at a time, and beat the frosting until it is light and fluffy

If you need to, add more milk to change the consistency

If you want to decorate the cupcakes, wait until they are cool

Use a dress-shaped cookie cutter or a template you make to cut out dress shapes from the white fondant

You can change the color of some of the fondant to match the color of your choice of wedding dress

Place a colored fondant dress shape on top of each cupcake

Use extra fondant pieces to add details like lace or other decorations

If you want to add a little sparkle, you can sprinkle edible silver glitter on top of the wedding dress cupcakes

Have fun at your bridal shower with the cupcakes
