the key at 21

a week after zia's bday, her sister ann asked me if i can also bake cupcakes for her friend who is celebrating her 21st birthday ... ann is such a nice girl so how can i say no?


since it's a 21st bday, ann requested for a 2 batches of red cupcakes topped with a white key and the number 21 ...

i really love how this turned out ... it's not easy to make a red fondant ... it will take tons of red color paste to achieve a good red and that would definitely compromise the taste of the fondant ... and i don't want that, of course ...

so, with the pinkish fondant that i made, i painted it with a mixture of red edible glitters and almond extract ... and the result is perfect! i love it! and i also love the smell of the almond extract.
