For example: a fairy cake in a pink cup will get pink icing, and a fairy cake in a blue cup will get blue icing, while a fairy cake in a green cup will get green icing. If you choose to do this, you will have to make separate batches of icing, one for each colour. When you are decorating your fairy cakes, consider using icing colours and sprinkles that match the holiday, season, or theme. Here are some ideas: If it is around Halloween, tint the icing orange, and decorate with orange and brown sugar strands. If it is spring, then decorate the cakes using white or pastel-coloured icing and sugar flowers or flower-shaped sprinkles. If the fairy cakes are for a party, take the party's colours into consideration. For example, if the theme colours of the party are blue and white, then tint the icing blue, and use white hundreds and thousands. Using a spoon, scoop up some icing and pour it onto the fairy cakes.
