White Tiger Cupcakes
Originally uploaded by sweet_tease_blog

These cupcakes were made for a birthday girl who is a fan of white tigers. The basis for these cupcake tigers is very similar to the lions and lambs.

The bodies are piped with a #8 tip, the legs and tail with a #4, the ears and muzzle with a #3 and the rest of the detail is done with a #2 tip. (grass tip used for the grass!)

In case anyone is curious, the type of cake used in the cupcakes is confetti.

*What I Learned: It takes a very steady hand, a great deal of patience, and a lot of time to put all those stripes on!

*Sweet Change: If I made these again, I would stagger the stripes a little more to give it a more natural look.
