ingredients

– 6 baked cupcakes

– 5 cups white icing

– 2 containers sugar sprinkles

instructions

  1. Remove the wrapper from each cupcake, and place inside 4-ounce Styrofoam cups.
  2. Place frosting in the freezer for approximately 15 minutes to stiffen.
  3. After the icing becomes firm, use an ice cream scooper to place one scoop of icing on top of each cupcake.
  4. Pour pink sugar sprinkles into a small bowl. While holding the base of your cupcake over the bowl of sprinkles, gently roll the icing in the sprinkles until it is thoroughly coated. Be sure to pat the cupcake gently to make sure the sprinkles stick. Add more sprinkles if you notice any bare spots on your cupcakes.
  5. Insert a colorful straw at a tilted angle, and enjoy!
