If there’s a batch of festive cupcakes baking during the holidays, the spirit of celebration is heightened by their inherent charm and ability to be adorned in a variety of ways. Different flavours and decorative details bring together the children and adults to get creative while spending some quality time.
The bite-sized bakes are perfect to include as a decor detail with piped green frosting and sugar ball baubles.
Dyed with the colour of the season, decadent red velvet cupcakes are delicious when contrasted with a tangy cream cheese icing.
The dark chocolate ganache and moist cake crumb make every bite feel like a sinful treat due to the double dose of truffle.
A popular favourite that is loved by all, decorating these can be a fun activity to engage children in the kitchen.
Baby pink frosting, a strawberry jam centre and miniature hearts cut from fresh berries are the perfect treat to enjoy seasonal fruit.
Switch out baking a large version of this seasonal confection by making cute cupcakes adorned with tiny meringue carrots.
