Simple Halloween Cupcake Ideas
Pumpkin Patch Cupcakes Ice your cupcakes with chocolate icing, and add pumpkin candies to the top. Have your preschooler add chocolate sprinkles, to make your icing look like a muddy field. You can also use gel icing to add vines and leaves to your pumpkins.
Spider Web Cupcakes Ice your cupcakes with white icing, use black gel icing to create a spider web pattern to the top of the cupcake. You can also add a plastic spider ring to each cupcake for a finishing touch.
Candy Corn Pinwheel Cupcakes Ice your cupcakes with white, chocolate, or yellow icing. Add a few fall sprinkles to the center of the cupcake. Add 8 candy corns around the sprinkles to create a pinwheel, or daisy shape.
