Flower Cupcakes

I had so much fun making these cupcakes today! They were super easy and so darling I had to share them with my cute 2 year old neighbor. I wanted to experiment around with toppings today, so I made a batch of chocolate cupcakes and started creating. I find that cake mixes make awesome cupcakes, especially when I'm going to doctor them up.

Ingredients
Baked cupcakes
White frosting
1 bag small marshmallows
colored sugar
candy for center of flower, I used Lemon Heads but Skittles or even mini chocolate chips are cute.

Time to start collecting cute colored sugars!

Cut each marshmallow on the diagonal 

This goes by pretty quickly

add some colored sugar and shake

the colored sugar sticks to the "cut" sides, so cute!!
