Transformers Birthday Cupcakes

So I get a call from my sister asking me if I could make some Transformers cupcakes for her son's birthday party...and he wants Bumble Bee design. The birthday party was going to be in three days, so I didn't have a lot of time for preparation. I figured, the quickest way to have these cupcakes ready, and look fun and creative at the same was this:

The cupcake toppers I have on here are edible images of Bumble Bee on fondant. This was done by copying the images on edible paper at my local cake supply store (A & J, in Glendora). Once I got that done, I cut it out into the shape of the image and peeled off the back lining of the edible paper. I lightly moistened it with water and stuck it onto the fondant, and... voila! You have some eye-catching cupcakes the kids loved! :)

My nephew LOVES Bumble Bee from Transformers, and when he saw these, he was just amazed! The look on his face was unforgettable!
