Halloween cupcake time! These were for kids attending a Christian school, so they couldn’t be anything scary… No jack-o-lanterns, bats, spiders, ghosts, etc. Instead we did just regular pumpkins, without the faces.
I used the same technique for these pumpkins as the paw prints from my Puppy Cupcakes. This time I wanted to add some sprinkles. (Kids love sprinkles!)
Outline the pumpkin…
Fill it all in…
Swish it all around with a toothpick to make it smooth…
Cover it in sprinkles, and shove a little topper in it…
These are the giant confetti sprinkles I used for the toppers. My husband broke them perfectly for me so that they would look like stems.
Aren’t they gorgeous? I got very excited about these 🙂
I found these awesome cupcake boxes at the baking store.
All packed up safely ready to go to school!
RI cupcake toppers — brilliant!! The sanding sugar adds the perfect sparkle!
actually, they are candy melts with sprinkles! (shhhh… I’ve never made RI before!)
