Step 1

In advance: Make fondant handle. Add 1/2 teaspoon Gum-Tex to 6 oz. fondant; tint brown. Roll 1 oz. into a 9 1/2 in. long rope, 3/8 in. thick. Score lightly with a knife, making diagonal lines about 1/4 in. apart. Use pattern as guide for handle shape. Let dry 1-2 days on waxed paper-covered board dusted with cornstarch.

Step 2

Also: Make cookies. Prepare and roll out dough. Cut 11 eggs for each basket using mini cutter from set; sprinkle on colored sugars. Bake and cool cookies.

Step 3

Bake and cool cupcakes. Ice tops fluffy. Cover sides with tip 6 basketweave. Sprinkle tops with tinted coconut. Position cookies (use more icing if necessary). Insert handles.

*Combine Brown with Red-Red for brown shown.
