Today was the first time I ever made eye contact with a cupcake. @_@ These little bunnies sure were sweet with my afternoon tea. The tea was Calendula, by Teaposy. I prefer a sweeter tea with sweets but the jasmine tones complimented the buttery, unsweetened coconut-dusted cupcakes very well.

These cupcakes are a sweet two-bite size, baked in a mini muffin pan. Ingredients are simple: Mini homemade vanilla cupcakes, homemade frosting, pink sugar, jellybeans, mini marshmallows, candy “eyes” and a little bit of coconut.
To make the bunny ears, I cut mini marshmallows on the diagonal and then pressed the sticky cut side into pink sugar.
To make bunny ears, cut a mini marshmallow diagonally as shown. This works even better if the mini marshmallow is already a little skewed.
By cutting the mini marshmallow on the diagonal, one side will be fat, tapering to a point. Press the sticky cut side into pink sugar.
