Right about now you're probably rolling your eyes, and thinking, "Good-God-a-mighty, how many of these silly boxed cupcakes does she need to share?"
Um, apparently at least one more.
You see, when I bake cupcakes, I always make a few extras and pop them in a zip lock bag in the freezer, where I can pull them out as needed, for dessert, or for...well, little boxed prezzies for friends.
Today I went with a double papered look (the black cupcake paper is a bit larger than the white one I baked the cupcakes in) and decided to go with yellow and black.
I made a cute little tag with a birthday candle on it to accompany the usual Happy Birthday tag....a sweet, unexpected surprise.
I think she's gonna like it.
Sweet idea! I will definitely show this to my daughter. She is always looking for things to do for her teacher colleagues.

Share everything! I LOVE your ideas. Do you mind telling me where you found the clear boxes? You thaw the cupcakes before icing? And (grin) how do you stay out of frozen cup cakes? They sound delicious!

Everyone of your designs is cuter than the one before - keep them coming!
