LOVE the decorated cupcakes! What recipe did you use? They look delicious. 🙂
It was nice meeting you yesterday. Your m&m cookies were yummy as well.
Thanks Elina! I used this recipe for Irish Car Bomb cupcakes from Smitten Kitchen. I’ll do a full post with the recipe and details later.
Super cute!! They look delicious too. 🙂
Thanks for the inspiration; I had seen the general idea elsewhere but never thought about doing it for sports logos for some reason. I made a few cupcake toppers this afternoon that I’ll be posting soon. (peasandcues.wordpress.com) Great idea!!
I love this! Im going to try to make some candy toppers for my cupcakes now.
They are so adorable! I don’t know why I do not do cupcakes more often. They are a such a crowd pleaser 🙂

I actually prefer the yellow sprinkles to the idea of yellow/gold frosting. It makes them look SO CHIC
I don’t know if the frosting or actually cupcake was my favorite part, so good I had to bring one to work with me on Monday.
