    you will need...
    cupcakes baked in lime green spotty paper cases
    complementary flavour of syrup, alcohol, buttercream or ganache
    sugarpaste: white and blue
    5mm ( 3 ⁄ 16 in) spacers
    set of circle and square cutters (FMM – geometric set)
    piping bag and tubes no. 18, 16 and 4 (PME)
    1 Brush the cakes with a syrup or alcohol, or add a thin layer of buttercream or ganache to help the sugarpaste stick to the cakes.
    2 Knead the sugarpaste to warm, then roll it out between the spacers. Cut out one circle for each cake, using a circle cutter.
    3 Using a palette knife, lift a paste circle carefully onto each cupcake, easing the fullness in if necessary. Run your finger around the edge of each circle to smooth the sugarpaste and to give it a rounded appearance.
    4 Separately, roll out the different colours of modelling paste to a thickness of 1.5mm ( 1 ⁄ 16 in). Cut out a selection of circles and squares of varying designs and sizes, using the suggested cutter set. Use these shapes to decorate the cupcakes.
    5 Top each cupcake with a ball of sugarpaste.
    Use a small paintbrush and a little water to help stick the shapes in place on each layer.
