Do you have a birthday party coming up?\u00a0 Could you use a simple dessert for an event?\u00a0 Consider serving cupcakes.<\/p>\n

Making Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

Cupcakes are very easy to make yourself.\u00a0 They are also simple to frost, and fun to decorate.\u00a0 The sky is the limit when it comes to creativity.\u00a0 Add a little bit of food coloring to the frosting and you can make just about any color you want.\u00a0 Or, opt to keep the frosting white, and add decorative toppings like sprinkles, candies, or colored sugar.<\/p>\n

Not up to making cupcakes yourself?\u00a0 There are many cupcake shops opening up in cities across the country.\u00a0 They offer unique flavors, and decorative frosting.<\/p>\n

Serving Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

Cupcakes are great for birthday parties or events.\u00a0 Since they are made in individual wrappers, there’s no need to cut, and they are easy to distribute.<\/p>\n

Transporting Cupcakes<\/h3>\n

Cupcakes are simple to bring to an event.\u00a0 If you make your own, you can put them in a 9 x 13 pan and cover it with foil.\u00a0 There are also 9 x 13 containers sold with plastic lids, which make for easy transportation.\u00a0 If you make cupcakes often enough, you may want to consider investing in a cupcake carrier.\u00a0 These carriers are made especially for carrying cupcakes, and have handles built right into the lids.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t have a birthday party or event coming up?\u00a0 That\u2019s okay.\u00a0 Cupcakes are great for just about any day of the week.\u00a0 You can make them on a snow day, or to celebrate simple occasions like Valentine\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n
