HOW TO ASSEMBLE POOL CUPCAKES

Start by frosting each cupcake with a thin layer of strawberry frosting and then set them aside.
Next up, roll out your fondant into 5 inch strips. You will need two per cupcake.
First wrap one fondant strip around a small circular cookie cutter. Then layer two strips on top of each other to create the "pool".
Very carefully place each fondant pool on top of each cupcake.
Once they are set on top, fill the pools with two teaspoons of blue raspberry gelatin.
For a fun final touch, place a mini gum ball on top of the jello in the fondant pools and a drink umbrella into the cupcake.
Repeat the process for each cupcake. Voila! You now have a lovely batch of the cutest pool cupcakes.
