Spring is the time for a garden themed baby shower. These spring themed or garden themed cupcakes are for wowing your party guests. The idea is all about cuteness, fun, and happiness in a style designed exactly for a baby girl shower.
Chocolate cupcakes frosted with swirled icing in two colors: very, very white and spring green, then topped with fondant caterpillars, butterflies, and flowers. Fondant decorations are in rosy pink, yellow, and white.
The best thing about this idea? The caterpillars. These must be the yummiest caterpillars in the world.

Garden Themed Baby Shower Cupcakes
Monkey Cupcakes
What a fun idea for kid's birthday cupcakes! Chocolate cupcakes frosted with chocolate frosting, then topped with a monkey, holding a banana, with a palm tree -- all decorations made from fondant.
I have seen lots of monkey cupcakes before, but this idea is so distinctive. I would call it cute animal cupcakes with a twist and an edge.

Easter Chocolate Egg Bunny Cake
A yummy cute idea for Easter cake decorating. This bunny will certainly delight the kids and charm the adults. Just look at his face! And this bunny is also an easy and inexpensive Easter cake centerpiece.
It's a round-shaped cake with buttercream icing, decorated as a bunny face, accompanied by two chocolate egg cakes decorated as bunny ears. Chocolate frosting looks extra delicious when garnished with pink icing.
And, of course, "it's the little detail that counts." That's what the lovely bow with floral design in spring and Easter colors is all about.

INGREDIENTS
200g marshmallows
70g butter, cut into cubes the size of a thumb nail
200g dark chocolate, broken into pieces
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
Zest of one orange (without pith)
100g crimson raisins
40g crystallised ginger chopped finely
Small sugar eggs for decorating (optional)
DIRECTIONS
Place the marshmallows, butter, dark chocolate, ground cinnamon, and orange zest into a saucepan. Heat on a low hob until completely dissolved, stirring regularly. Don't be tempted to hurry it by turning up the heat – the chocolate will burn!
Remove from the heat and add the raisins and ginger, stir well and pour into a tin (approx. 24cm x 24cm) lined with greaseproof paper. Push small sugar eggs into the top if you wish.
Refrigerate for 2 hours. Cut into squares and serve.
Gender Reveal Baby Shower Cupcakes
Awwwww! This must be the best, best idea to decorate gender reveal cupcakes. Fauxstess cupcakes — the classic cream filled chocolate cupcakes — frosted with rose swirl chocolate buttercream, then topped with cute fondant discs in either blue with the word "Boy?" or pink with the word "Girl?." All of you "the perfect hostess": these cupcakes are completely charming and stylish for a "boy or girl" themed baby shower / gender reveal party.

For the cupcakes, follow the instructions to make these fine chocolate cupcakes.
For the icing:
INGREDIENTS
500g icing sugar
250g salted butter at room temperature
1 tbsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp milk
110g sieved cherry jam
12 cherry sweeties from the sweetie tin, for garnish
DIRECTIONS
Pop your icing sugar, butter, vanilla extract and milk into a free standing mixer making sure the lid is on. Beat slowly at first and once all the icing sugar is combined turn it up to the maximum setting and whip up until light and fluffy. This took about 6 minutes.
Have a dig about to dislodge any butter that's without sugar, replace the lid and give it a last blast.
Then add the jam and give the icing a stir. Not too much mind as you're looking to achieve a streaky effect.
Ice your cupcakes either with a knife to spread the buttercream or with a piping bag fitted with your favorite nozzle. Top with a cherry.
Makes 12.
Wedding Rose Cupcakes
This cupcake decorating idea looks somewhat vintage, and that's what I like most about it.
Very beautiful, very lovely, very sweet pink and white roses in the form of cupcakes and in the style that is perfect for a vintage wedding theme.
Cupcake flavor is chocolate. Roses made from fondant. The very white buttercream swirl frosting and green fondant leaves make it all look more charming, more irresistible.
