Horse Cupcake Ideas

Twist a long rope of brown fondant to resemble a lasso. Place it around the edge of the cupcake in a lasso shape with the end hanging off the side of the cupcake. Fondant also works well for creating a horse head. Fondant is an edible material that works in a fashion similar to clay. You can roll it and mold it to create different shapes. Mold a piece of colored fondant to resemble a horse head including the ears. Press it on top of a cupcake iced with frosting in the same color. Make a horse tail from fondant and place it onto the opposite end of the cupcake. The cupcake itself creates the body of the horse. Wilton offers special cupcake liners that include animal legs on the bottom. There is a horse version of these reusable cupcake liners, which would accompany this decorating idea. If you're not comfortable working with fondant, a circus peanut candy offers a shape that resembles a horse head. Attach a circus peanut to a thick pretzel rod, which creates the horse's neck. You can dip both the circus peanut and the pretzel into melted white or milk chocolate for a uniform color and look. Use frosting to add the horse's facial features. Press the pretzel rod into the cupcake. Add the horse theme to the cupcake presentation for added visual effect. Set up a corral using fencing from a child's play set. You can also make your own fence by gluing together craft sticks. Arrange the fencing sections into a rectangular or circular horse corral. Arrange the horse cupcakes inside the makeshift corral.
