Marshmallows and buttercream and cake make for a perfect bite; it’s something about the various textures working together. So even if you don’t make these sheep try it out on your next cake or cupcake!
I love Wallace & Gromit and of course Shaun the Sheep, and these cute sheep cupcakes just so happen to look like him! These are a perfect treat for spring or Easter gatherings. You can pair them with my Easter Bunny and Baby Chick cupcakes for a full spring-time spread!
How to Make Sheep Cupcakes
Some Tips and Pointers
You can substitute whole milk yogurt for the sour cream if desired, I do it all the time and can’t really tell the difference. If you prefer your frosting to be less sweet then try whipping up a batch of Swiss or Italian buttercream. Silky smooth and delicious! Not a fan of fondant? Try using modeling chocolate for the faces. If you want to whip ip an AMAZING batch of vanilla cupcakes for this instead try my moist vanilla cupcake recipe! Sniping off the tip of the marshmallows you’ll be pressing onto the buttercream helps them stick better and not fall off later.
