Materials

  • 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 straws

Instructions

  • Bake your cupcakes in thick paper wrappers. If you can't find thick wrappers then you might be able to double up on normal wrappers
  • Once the cupcakes have cooled off, decorate the cupcake with a colorful frosting
  • add a little candy for the center of the flower.
  • Cut a little hole in the wrapper at the bottom of the cupcake
  • Cut a hole in the flower wrapper to match up
  • Push the straw through the flower cupcake and add some frosting around the straw
  • Push it up into the bottom of the cupcake going through the hole you made earlier
  • If the malt straw isn't staying, try adding a little frosting as glue
