Crochet mini cup cake

I would have never made it because I never understood why woould anyone want to crochet a cupcake. But had to when a baker lady placed an order for a cupcake keychain. It turned out so cute that now I wonder why didn't I try it before. Will be posting a FREE PATTERN soon.
I used worsted weight yarn and 3.0mm hook. But the guage isnt important because a little bit plus minus in size doesnt matter.

Begin with a magic circle
Rnd 1: 6 SC im the circle
Rnd 2: 2 SC in every sc...and use a stitvh marker to mark your first stitch. (12)
Rnd 3: * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st. Repeat from *(18)
Rnd 4:  * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next  2 st. Repeat from *(24)
Rnd 5: Working in back loops. 1 SC in every SC
Rnd 6: *1 SC in the next st, 1 fpsc(front post SC) in the next st. Repeat from *
Rnd 7-10: Repeat Rnd 6
Fasten off and put aside.
Now using another color you want for the top, I have used white.
Make a magic circle
Rnd 1: 6 SC in the circle
Rnd 2: 2 SC in every SC
Rnd 3: * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st. Repeat from *(18)
Rnd 4: * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next 2 st. Repeat from *(24)
Rnd 5: 1 sc in every sc
Rnd 6 -9 : Repeat Rnd 5
Rnd 10: Now hold the bottom liner of cupcake finished earlier with the top and do a ro of SC stitch tp stitch. By going through the stitvhes on last row of both pieces. Whne the last 6 st are remaining fill it up tight. and close off.
Rnd 11: Ch1. *(1 sc, 2 dc , 1 sc) in the next st, sl st in the next st. Repeat from * all around.

Now Cherry:
I made a cherry by crocheting over a bead, you can skip the bead and fill it with polyester fibre.
Start with a magic circle again in red
Rnd1: 6 SC in the ring. (6)
Rnd2: 2 SC in evey SC (12)
Rnd 3: * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next st. Repeat from *(18)
Rnd 4: * 2 sc in the next st, 1 sc in the next 2 st. Repeat from *(24)
Rnd5: 1 SC in every SC (24)
Rnd6-7 Repeat Rnd 5
Rnd 8: Now put the bead inside the cup that has formed. (4 sc, 1 dec over the next 2 st) Repeat 4 times (20).
Rnd 9: 3 sc, 1 dec (16)

Rnd 10
: 2 sc, 1 dec
(12
)

Rnd 11
: 1 sc, 1 dec

(8
)

Rnd 12
: dec in all pairs of two sc 
(4
)
weave the rest of the opening and fasten off
