Stuart the Minion

The girls and I ate the kinder surprise’s before I used them!


Materials:
Satin ice white fondant, Gel colours, rolling pin with guides, Sugar glue, Modelling tools, Modelling mat.


• For the body – Mould yellow fondant around a kinder surprise egg, or into an egg shape.
• For the overalls – Roll out blue fondant to 1/8″ thick. Cut out a circle, using an round cookie cutter. Cut the circle in half using a scalpel. Glue the half circles onto the sides/bottom of the minion (as shown).
• For the bib of the overalls – Cut a rectangle shape (using an acrylic ruler and scalpel) out of the rolled blue fondant. Taper in one end. Glue to the body.
• For the brace of the overalls – Cut a skinny rectangle shape (using an acrylic ruler and scalpel) out of the rolled blue fondant. Glue to the bib of the overalls, going around
the minion’s body.
• For the front pocket – Cut out a circle using an icing tip. Cut the circle in half and glue to the the bib.
• For the overalls – Using a quilting tool, run it around the edges of the overalls (including pocket) to create the sewn effect. Roll small balls of black fondant and glue to where the bib and brace meet. Roll a slightly bigger ball of black fondant and glue to the pocket.
• For the headband – roll out the black fondant 1/8″. Cut out a long skinny rectangle (like the braces) using an acrylic ruler. Glue around the minion, leaving room for the eye.
• For the hair/mouth – Using a paste gun, roll out the black fondant. Glue on to the minion. Roll out the pink fondant 1/8″ and cut out a tongue. Using a scalpel, make a line down the middle. Glue on to the face.
• For the eye – Roll out the grey fondant 1/8″ and cut out a circle using an icing tip. Using a slightly smaller tip, cut out another circle from the grey circle you just did, create a ring. Roll out the white fondant 1/8″ and cut out a circle using the slightly smaller icing tip you used to create the grey ring. Glue on to the minion. Roll a small ball of brown fondant and an even smaller ball of black fondant to make the inner eye. Press them flat and glue on to the eye.

And there you go!! Why not have a go at Dave the Minion next!!
