Vickys St Patricks Day Irish Cupcake Ideas

1. 1

   The Irish flag consists of equal width vertical stripes in green, white and orange

2. 2

   You can use coloured sugar strands as I've done or colour the frosting with food dye and spread the stripes on separately

3. 3

   You could make sugarpaste flags to go on as a decoration.

4. 4

   You could even just use green, white & orange cupcake cases

5. 5

   If you have a small heart shaped cookie cutter you can cut 3 from green fondant for each cake and place them points inwards to make a shamrock shape like on my guinness cupcakes previously posted

6. 6

   You can frost them green and use rainbow lace sweets and marshmallows to make a rainbow in the clouds as a topper, maybe with a chocolate gold coin wedged in at one end of the rainbow?

7. 7

   Use other coloured sweets like smarties or m&ms to make a rainbow pattern

8. 8

   Other ideas are leprechaun hats & pots of gold.

9. 9

   How about green velvet cupcakes instead of red?

10. 10

    Have fun creating!
