IDEA #1 - First up: CUPCAKES!

I know most of you have probably seen a version of this idea/ recipe before but this one of mine is by far - the easiest, . . . as it requires NO BAKING!

Here's an IDEA on fun Americana Cupcake Cones:

Here's a recipe for Americana Cupcake Cones:

 Need a super fast FUN food for the kids? They always LOVE this one!
 Ingredients:
~ box of {jumbo} size cake cones
~ {premade} cupcakes

Take the cupcake wrapper off the cupcake & pushed them down into the cones. No worries if you mess up the icing - either fix it the best you can or re-ice them. I just took a small spatula to fix it - they are so CUTE, no one will care if they aren't perfect! Oh - btw - I also added some patriotic sprinkles to them to "hide" any flaws! heehee  That's IT!

How about some ROCKcandy cupcakes?:

 How to create ROCKcandy cupcakes:

here's what you will need:

~ premade cupcakes

~ ribbon or ric rac to tie around cupcakes

~ rock candy

~ optional: pkg. of red, white & blue mini fans from Target Dollar Spot

This is the perfect idea when you are in a rush but have no time to bake. Simply buy premade cupcakes & some rock candy. Sprinkle rock candy on top. Tie ribbon or ric rac around the cupcakes. Add patriotic fan if you're feeling really crazy. DONE. Simple. Cute & festive!
