Henrie,we are 2 peas in a pod. Are you my twin? I have been making these cupcakes every year for Easter for my kids classrooms at school for almost 25 years! And I have 8 kids! That's a LOT of cupcakes! They are so cute though! Thanks for the memories. And YES I will be making them again this year for my 1st. and 4th. graders!


Thank-you Henri! These are a must for my grandchildren this year!


These sound like fun...The girls at work will get a big kick out of them. Thanks.


Oh henrie, these are wonderful! I always make something, every holiday, for the shut in's in our neighborhood. These will be soooo great! Thank you so much. Will definately give credit where credit is due! Thanks again!


Sounds so cute! thanks for posting. Have a happy weekend! Jett


Great idea, Henrie! I'll have to pass it on to some of the Room Mothers I know still helping out in the local school! Thanks so much!


Great recipe! Kids sure do love cheerfully decorated anything, especially cupcakes. These are great for any easter party or egg hunt get together. This is a great recipe for all moms and dads or anyone in the field of work dealing with children. Of course, many of us adults appreciate a great, cheery, happy cupcake once in a while ourselves. Thanks for posting!


These are positively adorable and use my favorite Easter treats Peeps!!!! I wish I had found this site in time for Easter, oh well there is always next year!!
