Birthday cupcakes

This was my first real attempt at using fondant. I wanted to make something pretty for a co-worker's birthday party.
The 'quilted' ones were the most difficult... it was hard not to slice right through the fondant.
I filled the fondant cupcakes with whipped frosting to give them more flavor. The tops are decorated with royal icing.
I was afraid people wouldn't like the taste of the fondant ones, so I made some super puffy cupcakes with whipped frosting to make sure everyone was happy. (The yellow lemon ones were the favorites!)
