Halloween Cupcakes
I made cupcakes for the Monday Night Football game a couple weeks ago. Since I made 2 batches, I froze 1/2 to save for Halloween. I took the cupcakes and frosting out of the freezer on the 29th and put them into the fridge. Then on the 30th I took them out and set them on the counter for about an hour before decorating them.
I had a lot of fun decorating them and I think they turned out great. One note about black frosting – it stains your mouth really bad!! With the mini cupcakes for MNF, I don’t think anyone noticed, but I ate one of the orange cupcakes and my tongue and teeth were black until I drank a glass of water. I told hubby to warn his coworkers before they took one!

Beautiful! I love the green pop of the basil scatted throughout.
These are definitely super creative! I love the strawberry basil combination… I’ve had a wonderful strawberry basil drink before… never added peaches too though… I’m sure that added some awesome flavor! Beautiful cupcakes!
Adding the peaches to the strawberry-basil combination was a great idea! This looks delicious.
i love your cupcake week! i have been craving them this week too!
These look super yummy!
Okay, you are now officially dangerous to my waistline, lady! Can you see me salivating over here??? :0)
Ha sorry for making you salivate! If you’re feeling up for a creative cupcake, definitely try these flavors together.
Those cupcakes look amaaazing.
Not only are these cute they are adorable too!
This is a tasty dish to experiment with. There are also various herbs and spices you can mix.
