Cupcake Tuesday ~ Father’s Day Cupcakes
Welcome to Cupcake Tuesday! If you are new here, grab a cup of tea or a glass of milk and enjoy a cupcake!
I’m sharing some of my Cupcakes today over at Attempting Creative, she is hosting a Cupcake Carnival!
In celebration of Father’s Day, I made some fun Cupcakes to share with you.
Does your Hubby or Father enjoy Grilling? Or is he like my husband, a Landscaper and cut grass? Maybe even an Executive that has to wear a tie to work! Well, I’ve got you covered for all 3!
Here is the how-to video for you…
You will need…
Grill Master Cupcakes:
- Tootsie Rolls
- Yellow Starburst
- Red Hot Tamales
- Frosting, tinted Red, Light Brown, Dark Brown or gray
Lawn Mower Cupcakes:
- Hershey Nuggets (or another candy, similiar size)
- M&M’s (4 brown & 1 colored for each lawn mower)
- Black Licorice for the handle
- Green Frosting
- Wilton #233 to make grass
Executive Cupcakes:
- Fruit Stripe gum
- Wilton white pearls
- Frosting, white and peach colored for the neck
My inspiration for these cupcakes came from a couple sources…I first saw the grills in the Wilton Cupcake Fun book (but I changed mine), and the Lawn Mowers over at Flickr. The ties were my own inspiration.

I love these cute Father’s day cupcakes, they are adorable!
Cool! The lawnmower one cracked me up because it’s so not a guy’s job at my house! 🙂

Great ideas and directions – thanks for sharing!
If my cupcakes weren’t lopsided and actually tasted good I would go the extra mile and decorate them.
So cute!!
Cute cupcakes as always, Liz–they’re all cute, but I think my favorite are the “grills”. Good job!
ok I finally found where to link. DUH. Observant I’m not! ROFL
love your cupcakes my favorite is the grill master
These are so cool! Love them. I wasn’t planning on fancy cupcakes for Father’s Day, but now I just might have to give it a try. Thanks!!
How cute are these?! Totally going to attempt the little grilling ones. 🙂 Thanks again for being a guest blogger. 🙂
Super cute cupcakes for dads! Love the tie design with the striped gum!
I am already planning ahead for the 4th of July. I think these red, white and blue batter cupcakes would make a festive dessert for the holiday weekend. So glad I could link up to this weeks party!!!
Too cute!!!!
