Food Crafts are so much fun to make with the kids. This is a food craft that the kids can definitely get involved with and even give out as gifts a lot like these Bunny Cupcakes , and Chocolate Covered Flower Pretzels 

Here’s What You’ll Need for these Flower Cupcakes:

  • Baked cupcakes baked in a thick paper wrapper – I found that using thick paper wrappers that are almost like gift box thickness
  • fun flower cupcake wrappers – I found some fun petal-shaped cupcake wrappers that are perfect for this food craft
  • Frosting – flower colors like pink, white, or yellow. You might have to mix white frosting with food coloring to achieve the right color
  • M&Ms for the center
  • Paper straw

Instructions:

  • Bake your cupcakes in these Wilton Cupcake wrappers that look like flowers.
  • Decorate the cupcake with your favorite frosting, and add a little candy for the center of the flower.
  • Cut a little hole in the wrapper at the bottom of the cupcake, and insert a malt straw.
  • If the malt straw isn’t staying, try adding a little frosting as glue
