STORY BEHIND THE DISH
Sometimes people who love to cook hate to bake & people who love to bake hate to cook, but I have yet to deiced which one I love more. Baking is no easy task, especially when the process & detail takes all night. I created these cupcakes from an image I saw on Pinterest, for my nieces birthday. They turned out just as delicious as they look. 


MODIFICATIONS
You can use any type of cake mix for this recipe, but a darker color may show through the cone. Kids always love Funfetti so that is what I decided to use. I make my own homemade butter cream frosting, but a whipped frosting in a tub would work just as well. If you have skills with fondant or want to try my No-Cook-Fondant recipe, you can use that for the hair, the flowers, etc.
