Method
  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C Fan / 400°F / Gas 6. Line 2 x 12-hole muffin tin with muffin cases.
  2. Put the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and sugars into a large bowl.
  3. Mix the eggs, sour cream, mashed banana and butter in another bowl. Use the Dualit Hand Mixer with flat beater attachments for ease.
  4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and carefully fold in the ingredients using a wooden spoon. Add the blueberries. Spoon into the cases and bake in the oven for 25 minutes until well risen and lightly golden.
  5. To decorate the bunny faces, slice the marshmallows in half and add the pink sugar to the sticky part of the marshmallow. Spread the buttercream over the cupcakes and stick two halved marshmallows to the top of the cupcakes to make the bunny's ears. Add the eyes and sweets for a nose.
  6. To decorate the bunny tails, mix the buttercream and green colouring together in a large bowl. Spoon into a pipping bag fitted with a small fluted nozzle. Pipe the green buttercream over the surface of the cupcakes. Make 12 bunny's bottoms with tails and two long feet out of white fondant. Add each one on top of green icing.
