Organic Cake Mix Cupcakes

I bought organic cake mix made by Foodstirs© and ended up baking some delicious cupcakes for a party. The cupcakes were topped off with organic frosting made by Simple Mills©, followed by candy pearls and decorations. You might be able to find the cake mix and frosting at a nearby grocery store, if not, click here and here to order online.

These cupcakes are tasty with just enough sweetness for all you sugar lovers. I love the fact that both products include natural ingredients, so you can feel confident that you are not feeding yourself any weird ingredients. Regular boxed cake mixes have a lighter taste, but this organic cake mix tastes more homemade with its dense texture. I look forward to trying the other products these two companies sell.

***The cupcake liners were bought at Michaels.

***The cupcake toppers are stickers I bought at Hobby Lobby. I glued a toothpick on the back of each sticker then I inserted them into the cupcakes.
