apple cupcakes

these apple cupcakes were super easy and too cute! i covered the cupcake in vanilla frosting, rolled the top in green sprinkles, inserted a pretzel stick & mint leaves, & then used a child's fork to take a 'bite' out of it & added three brown sprinkles for apple seeds (i wanted to use sesame seeds but only had the light colored ones). aren't they adorable?!

I stumbled on you blog looking for cute ideas for my daughters first birthday... I LOVE this little apple. My family owns many of the apple orchards in washington state, so apples just warm my heart. Especially really cute ones like this. Keep up the great work! :D

Hi Kara! I was looking for something to make for my daughter's one year birthday (it's an apple orchard theme)and these are perfect. Couple of questions, first what kind of decorating tip did you use for these before dipping them in the green sugar? And second, have you ever made eggless cupcakes and if so do you have a good recipe you can share? My daughter is allergic to egg whites. Thank you and keep up the great work!

These cupcakes have made a significant mark. You are absolutely brilliant for having made them. Wonderful! And they really look better with the brown sprinkles than the sesamy seeds. I've seen both versions... Yours are the better original - by a light year!! :)

thank you very much!
to answer the frosting method question...
i didn't use a tip, and didn't pipe on the frosting..just used a good old knife :).
and i haven't ever made eggless cupcakes..but there's a ton of recipes out there on the web for them! google it, and they'll all come up :).
thanks again.
