Valentine Cupcakes Idea

Homemade Valentine Ideas…

Make the homemade Valentine cupcake topper, but you can let someone else bake those scrumptious cupcakes if you want.

Love can be spelled out in so many ways for Valentine’s Day, but our favorite is on Valentine cupcakes. This adorable Valentine cupcakes idea is as sweet as can be. Simply drop your cupcakes into Dessert Skirtz cupcake wrappers. The cupcake in the photo above is a sinful sweet-but-tart lemon cupcake from Gigi’s Cupcakes. We dressed the cupcakes in these colorful Kaleidoscope cupcake wrappers.

To send your message of love (as if words are needed after a cupcake display like that), just slide a heart shaped note into a coiled wire and slip it into the cupcake. Lollipop glued to Hello Kitty? We think not. Go for the gusto!

Valentines are sweet. Cupcakes… even sweeter. Having the coolest Valentine in the class…priceless.

Have the cutest Valentines in the class.

How to Make Cupcake Toppers

Cupcakes are the perfect blank canvas for your party’s dessert table. The cupcake toppers can so easily be customized to coordinate with any theme or colors you choose. We do have a slight aversion to the cupcake toppers available on the market right now. Not enough bling and wow. Printed tags are sweet… for some occasions, but are certainly not a one-size-fits-all option. Not enough elegance. So as usual, the Party Divas, here in The Dressing Room, have some over-the-top DIY cupcake toppers for you to try.

DIY Cupcake Toppers: Ideas and Inspiration

Silk-esk flowers add a profusion a drama and elegance to the humble cupcake. We paired this DIY floral cupcake topper with the hand painted paisley designs from Confetti Couture’s Autumn Nights Dessert Skirtz cupcake wrappers. The plum petals are secured into the chocolate cupcakes with beaded party picks. A tower of flower topped cupcakes is a gorgeous display for weddings, showers, anniversaries, or 50th birthday party.

For this spectacular touch of sparkle, we used several beaded party picks. Cupcake toppers are jewelry for your cupcakes. We skirted this cupcake with cupcake wrappers from the Jeweled Amethyst collection of Dessert Skirtz. This look is brilliant for weddings, anniversaries or even a girly princess party.

Sometimes you have to go big or go home. These mini cowboy cupcakes are dressed in Rustic Americana Mini Skirtz, mini cupcake wrappers. They are topped with Texas sized die cut paper letters with a handwritten name. These rustic minis make adorable place cards on the party table. Think Fourth of July, Western theme, or a kid’s train theme party.

These precious pinwheel cupcake toppers are so easy to make. Check out our pinwheel tutorial to make your own. The DIY pinwheel cupcake toppers are tucked into chocolate cupcakes skirted with cupcake wrappers from Confetti Couture’s Traditional Elegance collection. This collection has coordinated cupcake wrappers in the standard size, as well as the mini cupcake size. Both are adjustable to fit your “standard” or “mini”. Lovely.

The options are endless! Make amazing cupcakes.

Christmas Cupcakes

Hot cocoa Christmas cupcakes:

Christmas cupcakes make the sweetest dessert on Christmas day, but they also make a perfect small gift for the teacher, Christmas party treat, or Christmas party favor. Use these creative cupcake packaging ideas to transform any ordinary cupcake into a divine display of sweet goodness. This hot cocoa cupcake, dusted in cocoa and topped with a marshmallow, will melt even Mr. Scrooge’s heart. The clear mug lets the sweet Elf Laundry Christmas cupcake wrappers show through. For a topper, we used a plastic candy cane ornament. These creative Christmas cupcakes make great office gifts or Christmas party favors.

Cupcake creations, in a jar:

Creative containers turn otherwise ordinary cupcakes into festive cupcake creations. For these Christmas cupcakes, we used short, round jars. The cupcakes are skirted with the polka dot Christmas cupcake wrappers from the Elf Laundry Dessert Skirtz collection. We used a festive red and white striped ribbon to attach a spoon… gift-worthy.

Christmas Cupcakes in lanterns:

We placed these festive Christmas cupcakes in mini lanterns. Topped with a candied orange slice and cranberry, this one is a handful of Christmas cheer. The best part… the lantern is a candle holder. It’s a gift in a gift. Candles and cupcakes, what’s not to love?

Jingle bell cupcakes!

These chocolate cupcakes are covered in creamy cherry frosting. The cupcakes are skirted with fun, pink and green Christmas cupcake wrappers. The toppers are oversized pink jingle bells…easy as can be. How sweet will these Christmas cupcakes look on your table? Make a statement!
