Making Halloween Cupcakes

I'd had the cupcake box and stuff in my pantry for a few weeks, but with all the sickness in the house we never found time to make them. This weekend everyone was feeling well, so we got out the stuff to make the cupcakes (of course I couldn't find the Halloween cupcake liners until after we made the cupcakes). The girls had a lot of fun. For some reason Shelby decided to get naked again (which is why there aren't many photos of her making the cupcakes). Taylor did a really good job of putting the icing on. Of course there was a lot - and I really mean a lot - of licking and tasting.



At first the girls were pretty good about not overloading the cupcakes with sprinkles, but by the end the sprinkles were being heaped on. For the last few cupcakes we just took the cupcakes and stamped them upside down on their plates to pick up the extra sprinkles. It worked pretty nicely and was an easy way to decorate the cupcakes.



Of course afterwards came the best part . . . eating them. Taylor was so excited to finally get to take a bite. I'm sure she was holding back the whole time.



Shelby's not a fan of icing, but did enjoy the cake part.



Payden wasn't awake for the cupcake making, but got to have one the next day. I honestly think it was her first cupcake all by herself. I think she enjoyed it. Anyways, it was fun to make the cupcakes with the girls, and it's been nice to have all these fun little Halloween things to do throughout the month.
