Lingerie Theme Cupcakes

These lingerie themed cupcakes are for a bachelorette party with the colors yellow, silver & white. What a lovely set up for the bride. Love the combination!

The actual figures are made of gumpaste which rests on fondant circles. Allow the fondant to dry overnight otherwise it will be too soft for the icing. Now I made the breasts a little larger and rounder than average. It is a bachelorette party after all. To make the breasts, I simply rolled 2 equally sized round gumpaste ball and attached together with tylose. When dry, cut out 2 circles for the bra and cover them. Put them lower for more cleavage or higher for a more conservative look. For a more R rated version, you can even apply half a nipple peeking out of the bra but do this before you cover the breasts. The bra straps were 2 thin pieces of fondant and I used a ball tool to give it movement.
For the buttocks I used a heart shaped cutter. I simply made an indent on the gumpaste for the "cheeks" and cut the rest freehand to create the waist. The corset was cut freehand as well and rolled two balls under the corset to create cleavage. The design options for these are endless! You can add leopard or zebra prints on the bras, polka dots, stripes, etc. But my personal favorite would have to be the G-string. It's clean and simple but with a big statement :D
