BEARY FUN!


We had a couple of classroom celebrations this week, so I made these Bear-at-the-Beach cupcakes for the kiddos to enjoy. I tinted the cake batter with blue food coloring (though they ended up looking more pale green.)

Then I frosted them with blue frosting and blue sprinkles. I used brown sugar for the sand. Each Teddy Graham was given sunglasses and trunks or a bathing suit via food coloring pens.



I set each one on a gummy Lifesaver inner-tube then topped off each cupcake with a paper umbrella. They were a bit time-consuming to make, but the kids seemed to enjoy them. I feel like I've been in the kitchen a lot lately though ... time for a break ... where's my beach and inner tube!?!?

The cupcake cake pan came from a store in the Gateway mall DT SLC!!
sur la table? Can't wait for you to use it. I thought of using that rainbow cake mix, but i thought it would look better with a dark bottom???? What do you think?
