If you are looking for a quick and easy way to impress your family this year at Easter brunch, bring some cupcakes. Seriously.
Cupcakes (the kind you buy in the box, obviously… this is ME we’re talking about here) take NO time to make and with a tiny bit of effort you can look like a crafty, cupcake queen. Easter is the perfect holiday to show off your skills, since there are SO many cute ideas out there.
This year I am trying a design I saw on ‘The Chew.‘ They visited a cupcake factory and one of the employees showed them how to make them. But the steps were never put on their website (that I could find) so I just went by memory and I LOVE how they turned out. This is my run-through version, and I will make them again this coming weekend before our Easter brunch.
These adorable flower cupcakes were in my Family Circle magazine, and since I was already working with marshmallows & colored sugar from the bunnies, I figured I HAD to give these a try. They are time consuming, but easy enough that it doesn’t bother me. I just had Hudson dip them in the colors while I cut them, so the process went pretty quick. I have NO artsy/crafty skills whatsoever, so I was SUPER IMPRESSED with how these turned out.
they look hard. no time, huh?
hahaha! I promise!! The bunny ones take no time.. the flower one… um… maybe 4 minutes a flower.
I going to try this with my nieces this weekend.
Let me know how they turn out! 😉
This looks amazing— please bring some to work
If I have any leftover I will bring them in on Monday! I am making a fresh batch for Easter.
Almost to pretty to eat…almost!
haha… yes they are pretty, but also delicious!! 😉
