Argh-mazing Fondant Pirate Tutorial, Me Hearties!

Despite their nefar­i­ous behav­ior, there’s just some­thing about pirates that intrigues chil­dren and adult alike. After many vis­its to Dis­ney­land and count­less rides, my daugh­ter’s favorite one still remains the Pirates of the Caribbean! Between the catchy theme song to the extreme­ly suc­cess­ful movie fran­chise, these crazy buc­ca­neers some­how cap­ture the hearts of us all! From birth­day par­ty themes and Hal­loween cos­tumes and even Talk Like a Pirate Day {yes, there is such a thing!}, pirates con­tin­ue to main­tain their pop­u­lar­i­ty in the par­ty scene.

What bet­ter way to adorn your cup­cakes at your next pirate-themed event than with a fon­dant pirate top­per?! Walk the plank or head on over to the Craft­sy blog for the step-by-step instruc­tions to recre­ate this irre­sistible swash­buck­ler to adorn your argh-maz­ing con­fec­tions! And be cre­ative in chang­ing the pirate’s facial expres­sions and acces­sories to build your own pirate crew.

If you’re look­ing for a more in-depth tuto­r­i­al to cre­ate a three-dimen­sion­al fon­dant pirate, as well as a pirate map and ship, make sure to check out the instruc­tions in my book Sweet & Unique Cup­cake Top­pers!
