Oops-a-Daisy Garden Cupcakes



Tonight it is our small group's turn to bring dessert to our marriage Bible study.  I made cupcakes--of course. 

My plan was to make the sunflowers shown in the Hello, Cupcake book.  However, on shopping day, I got to the grocery store with two ready for nap kiddos and couldn't find yellow frosting or food coloring.  I improvised quickly and decided to make daisies using white frosting.


I started decorating the daisies and realized the smaller petals look much more like a daisy.  The longer petals look almost octopus-esque.  Oh, well.  Decorate and learn.

I knew I didn't have enough white frosting to do a flower on every cupcake, so I made some just have grass with "bugs."  I used M&M's with dark chocolate frosting to make bees and ladybugs.



This would be a fun theme for a garden party or a kid's tea party. 

Have a blessed Thursday!

May I have some?
