You will first need to work with the gum paste, as it will provide the collar for the shirt. \u00a0Roll out a thin piece of gum paste, cut it into a rectangle, and fold the upper corners down and to the middle of the shape. \u00a0Next, using the fondant, or a fondant\/gum paste mix, cut out the tie, and decorate it as you would like! \u00a0Allow it to dry before putting on top of iced cupcakes.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/DSC_6268web.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4005\" title=\"Father's day tie cupcakes\" src=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/DSC_6268web.jpg\" alt=\"father's day cupcakes\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/DSC_6268web.jpg 600w, https:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/DSC_6268web-300x200.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Happy Father&#8217;s Day to all the wonderful Dad&#8217;s out there, and especially to mine!
