Mini Cupcakes with Extra Mini Cupcake Toppers


I just had to share these....such a simple and fun idea! I made some mini cupcakes, and topped them with extra mini cupcake toppers. The toppers are just mini Reece's peanut buttercups, and I topped those with buttercream using a small piping tip, and then sprinkes. So simple. So cute. Everyone loves them. So why not?!

 

These are great all on their own as cupcakes. You can decorate standard cupcakes with the same idea, just use the Reece's cups that are one size larger for the toppers.

To use these in a bouquet like I did (in the pervious post), remove the wrapper, place a lollipop stick through the center (only go halfway through the cupcake) and add a gum drop beneath the cupcake for support. Don't forget this step, it's the most important part!

These look adorable as part of a display with some cupcakes on a stick and some just sitting normally. If you are going to add them into a bouquet be very careful because you can easily break apart or knock over your cupcakes. I speak from experience here!

But they sure are adorable!
