Patriotic Cupcakes
There are lots of different opportunities and holidays to show pride for your country. No matter where you are from, you can find ways to decorate your desserts to match your country’s flag and colors.
Here are some cupcakes I made for the Fourth of July. I like to use Pillsbury cake mix when I’m in a rush or don’t feel like being in the kitchen for a long time.
The decorations are simple and the cupcakes delicious!
Cake Mix Donuts
These donuts are fun and tasty treats I made for craftboxgirls.com. Click here for the recipe.
Cupcakes and Candy
Talk about sugar overload! Who wouldn’t love the combination of sweet cupcakes and candy? All you have to do is fill plastic wine glasses about 3/4 of the way with candy, and then place the decorated cakes on top.
Mermaid Cupcakes
This idea is one of my favorites because I love how popular mermaids are right now. I couldn’t wait to bake these cupcakes for a party.
Bake any flavor of cupcakes you like, then top them off with icing. Finally, add seashells and mermaid tails made out of candy melts. I purchased the tail and shell molds on amazon.com.
I also found a really cute mermaid cupcake recipe on michaels.com.
And that’s it! Thanks for reading. Hopefully you found some yummy baking inspiration for your next event.
