DIY: Halloween Cupcake Toppers

Hey guys! Last night I made some fun Halloween inspired cupcake toppers! Here's how I did it!

Supplies:
Construction Paper
Scissors
Toothpick
Tape
Pencil/Sharpie

Step One:
Draw your objects on the paper and cut them out. I drew pumpkins and ghosts!

Step Two:
Tape your toothpicks to the back of the paper and enjoy!

Ideally I would stick them in cupcakes but I haven't actually made them yet. I want to use them for Halloween but that's too far away and my will power when cupcakes are present is quite low.

Halloween is so close and we just can't wait!!

DIY: Cupcake Toppers

Hey everyone! So with Easter right around the corner I thought I'd make some cupcakes. Now if they make it the week I'll really be surprised but its the thought that counts, right? Right. I went to the store and got cake mix and icing and while there saw some really cute Easter inspired cake toppers for sale. Well that got me thinking I could make some that would be even cuter. So I did and they were super easy and simple and I encourage everyone to make your own to top you cupcakes!

Here's what I used to make my bunny cupcake toppers:

Toothpicks
Construction Paper
Tape and Glue
Exacto Knife or Scissors
Pencil or Pen

1. I drew the outline and cut out the shape of a bunny since that's what I chose to make. Other ideas could be little decorated eggs , carrots or baby chicks. Next I cut out little white circles for my bunny's white cotton tail.
2. After everything was cut out I glued the tails on.
3. I taped the other side of the bunny to a toothpick (the side people won't see).
4. Next step is to pop your newly created cupcake toppers into your cupcakes and enjoy! Here are my first attempt!


I made carrot cake cupakes with vanilla icing (and no the icing did not go bad, I died it green). These turned out great, what are some of your favorite Easter desserts?
