What's a cupcake cake? Its a cake that is actually made up of individual cupcakes. The top can be iced and decorated like any cake. These are especially popular for kids parties because they're easy to serve and eat - just pull each cupcake apart, no need to slice or serve on a plate. And you don't need to miss out on the filling either - cupcakes can be individually filled. They can be any size and any shape, too!
This is a recent cupcake cake that I did for my husband. He doesn't like cake but does like cupcakes so he always gets a cupcake cake for his birthday. Its a small cake (10 cupcakes) iced with buttercream and chocolate letters to spell DAD.
Hope the Easter Bunny was good to you. The Easter bunny stopped at our house and left baskets for all of us. My basket included some of my favorites - Peeps, Reeces peanut butter eggs, Cadbury Creme eggs, and dark chocolate Choxie truffles. The Easter Bunny filled Brendan's basket with toys and the plastic eggs with cereal and puffs - we don't want him to become a chocoholic yet (he's only 15 months old)! But I did give him a chocolate kiss to try - he took a bite and gave it back to me but then had a second thought and demanded it back so that he could eat the rest.
Here are some Simply Sweets Easter creations - chocolate covered grahams and chocolate covered Oreos:
