Welcome to Cupcake Tuesday! If you are new here, grab a cup of tea or a glass of milk and enjoy a cupcake!
It’s been a long time in the making, but I finally have my first vlog to share with you on cupcake decorating.
I’m so excited to be showing you some of the cupcakes that I made from the What’s New, Cupcake? book. I’ve been telling you lots about the book lately, I’m excited to show you…
Please bare with me 
Don’t be too harsh…
I hope you enjoyed my demonstration and learned a little. I would love to see some of cupcakes, when you try them.
Don’t you love my apron? My very good friend, Dawn, in Nashville, had it made for me! Thank you my friend! Love you!
For each cupcake, you will need…
- 22 mini marshmallows, cut in half diagonally (I actually used a few less)
- Wilton Colored Sugar
- Jelly Belly Licorice Pastels or other candy for the center
- Rainbow Twizzlers for display
I used both white and colored mini marshmallows. You can buy them at Walmart or the Grocery Store.
For all the great candy, be sure to check out Albanese Confectionery Store.
Full Disclosure: I received the What’s New, Cupcake? Book to review, my opinions of the book are my own. I received some products from Wilton, my opinions of the products are my own. And I received some candy from Albanese Confectionery Company, my opinions are my own.

I LOVE the frog cupcakes! I am out of town with my hubbie while he’s at a training class. I found a pic of a frog just chillin’ on a lily pad to use as my facebook profile pic while I’m gone. Everyone has been teasing me about the pic. When I get back I’m gonna make the frog cupcakes to go along with my “theme”. Thanks for the inspiration.
I love the idea of using the cut up marshmallows!!

It’s so HARD to pick a favorite cupcake, but I’m so curious about the Concession Stand one that tastes like Dr. Pepper! I’d love to taste that and I really like the classic look.
