Mini Cupcakes

Monkey and I have been up to a lot of Valentine's Day fun for the past MONTH! I've learnt that if I don't get an extreme head start on things, I'll end up doing nothing. So, in January, we made Ben's Valentine's Day gift and cards to send to family in the States. Monkey had a TON of fun coloring cards but I was most excited for making these! MINI CUPCAKES!

I love to bake, but sadly we don't do it very often. As a stay at home mom, I feel a lot of pressure to have everything homemade. But I've realized that you can't do EVERYTHING, so I always turn to my best friend, Betty Crocker, for a little help with baking. She helped me with the cherry cupcakes and french vanilla frosting on these beauties. I sure do love that woman.

I found a tutorial for these awesome boxes that we're going to put the decorated cupcakes in. They were so easy and fast to make, I think I'm addicted to origami now! Oh, and clean up was a breeze since I had a lil' Monkey who licked anything and everything with icing or cake batter.
