You followed "the rules" for adverb formation from an adjective.
It's your language--you can build parts.

Good! Then cutely it is! I like the word, and my husband the english
major and disgustingly wonderful writer agrees with you that it is a
perfectly good construction. Thank you Sandra!

I think I missed something, but why isn't cutely a word? It's in the
Merriam-Webster dictionary (at least, AOL's version).
"Oh, a lesson in not changing history from Mr I'm-My-Own-Grandfather!"
A civil war is one where they say 'sorry!' after killing each other.
"Someone once pointed out to me that many of my best monsters can be directly
traced to my personal loathing of seafood." --Tad Williams
"Nobody sensible is allergic to serendipity." --Also Tad Williams
"Have crossed orcs with goblin men in caverns below Isengard. V. tedious
experience as orcs and goblin men most reluctant to breed, even with dinner
and flowers. Next time will try something easier, such as breeding goblins
and cheerleaders to create super-perky army that can travel by day and will
not complain about pink uniforms."
