Monkeying around!

My friend was having a Curious George themed birthday party for her little boy. So of course we had to have a big yellow hat! For the hat, I just layered different sizes of round cakes and then carved it to the shape that I wanted. I covered it in yellow fondant and placed it on top of a yellow fondant circle.

These monkey cupcakes were super simple and a BIG hit with the kids! I'm pretty sure they were more excited about these than they were about the cake! They are simply frosted in chocolate buttercream then I cut mini Nilla wafers for the ears and cut a little piece off a regular Nilla wafer for the mouth. The eyes are M&M's with a dot of black frosting. So cute, so easy, so fast! Happy Birthday Jaden!
