Notable Valentine Cupcakes
- 1 (18.25-ounce) package strawberry-flavored cake mix
- Scrapbooking paper
- 2 (16-ounce) containers ready-to-spread vanilla frosting
- Red food coloring
- Colored sugar
- 24 roll-shaped chewy candies (we used Gummi Savers)
- 24 wooden party picks
- Prepare cake mix according to package directions for cupcakes.
- While cupcakes cool, cut 24 (4- x 1/2-inch) strips of scrapbooking paper. Write Valentine notes on the plain side of each strip of paper. Beginning with a short side, roll up each strip tightly to hide the note. Set notes aside for now.
- Spoon frosting into a big bowl, and stir in food coloring, 1 drop at a time, until the color is just what you'd like.
- Decorate the cupcakes: Spread cupcakes evenly with frosting. Sprinkle with colored sugar. Place 1 round gummy candy on each cupcake. Using picks, attach notes to cupcakes through the round gummy candies.
