[Tutorial] How to make a fondant teddy bear

Finally! This is my second tutorial posting.

"How to make a fondant teddy bear"

The teddy bear is from my Valentine Day Cupcakes.

I love using teddy bear on my cupcakes & cakes. 

They are adorable to look at. Especially, when it's small.. 

This is my way to make a teddy bear.

I tried my best to take pictures of every single step to make it easier for you.

You will need:

White fondant( your choice )

Black fondant( your choice)

Quilting tool

Small round ball tool

Knife

Brush & water or Edible glue

1 spaghetti stick

Making a body

I use spaghetti to support body & head. 

Press sides of top & bottom to attach legs and arms for next steps.

Dividing 

 There is another way to make legs & arms.

You can roll the ball out (not dividing) long, cut it in the middle diagonally.

This way you can make two legs or arms at the same time.

Making Legs

Shaping a foot

Quilting

 Brush edges of legs with water or edible glue and attach to the body.

Making arms 

Attaching a head

Shaping an ears

 Press the middle of the ear with a small round ball tool.

Trust me, this makes a big difference!

You can also put a tiny round fondant dot( colours of your choice )

 in the middle of the ear.

* I also attached a small round ball on his mouth spot.

Toy Story Dessert Table

Toy Story Party Dessert Table

I'd like to share Tori's dessert table for her son(Ethan)'s 1st birthday party.

After she picked up baked goodies, I had no idea how she was going to put them together.

I tried my best to keep her theme & colour.. so everything could go well with her plan.

When I saw pics of Ethan's Dessert Table she had organised, I was so excited!

She did an awesome job and the table looked very professional.

Thank you for lightening up my work, Tori. & Happy birthday, Ethan!

Special thanks to Phuong for great photograph.

Happy 1st Birthday, Ethan!

Edible Woodie! It took me 4-5 hours to make him with sugar..(except for time to dry!!)

It was quite a challenge but I'm so proud of this sugar woodie for Ethan!

I don't usually use edible pens ( but I have lots of colourful ones!)

This time, they were so handy and made woodie's shirt & vest awesome!!
