Another Under The Sea themed birthday party, this time for twin girls.  One girl requested a mermaid, the other a dolphin:

The birthday girls each had a jumbo cupcake.  The rest of the cupcakes were all regular size and topped with corals, fish, shells, and other sea creatures.

These were two of my favorites.  Using a super fancy technique (not really), I affixed “sand” to the gum paste round that topped the cupcake.
