Mother’s Day is this weekend and I can’t think of anything more special than creating a gift to give to that special mom in your life.
This Mum Cupcake Bouquet says it all. It’s not only pretty but pretty darn tasty too!
That’s because this Mum Cupcake while it may look like a beautiful mum, is actually made with marshmallows dipped in colored sugar. Then each marshmallow half is strategically placed on an iced cupcake (homemade or store bought) to create what looks like a colorful mum.
Add some green licorice sticks and this truly looks like a bouquet.
I first shared this back in 2014. It was such a hit, I’ve been sharing it every year since just in time for Mother’s Day.
While these may look hard, they’re really quite simple to create. I’ve taught these to kids as young as 2 years old, but adult supervision would be advised.
These Mum Cupcakes are fun for all ages. Just be sure to gather up all the ingredients ahead of time so you’re ready to enjoy creating your very own masterpiece of Mum Cupcakes.
To help make it easier I created this video years ago when just learning to shoot my own videos. It may not be the best video, but you’ll get the idea either way.
Here’s my video for creating this beautiful Mum Cupcake Bouquet.
