With a few Christmas parties/dinners on the horizon, I find that I am searching for unique ideas for decorating cupcakes. I came across a few new ideas that could work for both kids parties and adult holiday celebrations.
Candy can be used as an accessory to decorate cupcakes. I love the wreath made of jelly bean topped cupcakes, it makes for a delicious and festive presentation. You can also use gummy trees and red hots to form a bough of holly. These snowman cupcakes are TOO cute. The use of licorice for earmuffs is darling, and so simple! I typically leave the fondant toppers to my contributor, Charynn of Two Sugar Babies, but if you are looking to expirement, I think these 4 ideas are simple to execute and make a big style impact!
For the adult crowd, I what to try infusing peppermint into my cupcakes this season. This peppermint mocha cupcake has my name written all over it and I can’t wait to try it out! And last, but certainly not least, cover an upside-down ice cream cone with green frosting to look like a tree!
