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.
