Cupcake Liner Roundup

I love all the fun ideas that people come up with using cupcake liners.  There are so many cute styles and being baked onto the bottom of a cupcake never does them justice.  You can see some of the cupcake liner ideas I have shared before, but here are a few more.

Skip To My Lou made these cute flower valentines using baking cups and suckers:


Craftomaniac made this cute topiary:



And I found these ideas over at Amanda's blog.  These ribbons from Urban Comfort were used to decorate cards, but they would be fun prize ribbons for a party:


And these flowers from Intimate Wedding are so pretty you almost forget they are cupcake liners:


There are more fun ideas on her blog, even an entire skirt made from cupcake liners, and you can see all of them over on her blog, It's Always A Party at the Parkers.

There are also cupcake liner roundups over at C.R.A.F.T. you should check out.

And if you end up using all of your cupcake wrappers for crafts, don't worry!  You can use parchment for your cupcakes.

Cupcake Liner Pom Pom Garland

Another great use for cupcake liners, other than baking cupcakes of course!  This cute garland:


Handmade Weddings is sharing the tutorial for this pom pom garland made from cupcake liners over at Design*Sponge.

Cupcake Liner Flowers

Most people buy cute cupcake liners to bake their cupcakes in, but they never look as cute after the baking as before.  Icing Designs solved this problem by using them to decorate the top of the cupcakes instead of the bottom:


They have a tutorial to show you how to make these cute cupcake liner flowers over on their blog.  And they are perfectly pink for Valeneint's Day too.

If you don't want to make your own homemade fortune cookies, these would be a fun substitute, and you still get to write your own fortunes.

Paper Cup Cupcake Wrappers

The Cupcake Confessional took cute paper cups, cut them down, and used them as cupcake wrappers.:


Think of all the cute options that opens up for you!  And they hold their cute color about a thousand times better than regular baking cups!  AND you don't need a baking pan!

You can check out the details HERE.

If you are out of cupcake liners, use this idea from Martha:


She used parchment paper to make her own.  Handy.  And pretty darn cute:

Ice Cream Cupcakes for Alisa

Alisa wanted to know if I had found any ideas for ice cream cupcakes and I DO!! I just made some for Hubby's birthday and I also found these from Joy The Baker:

I actually took pictures of the ones that I made, but my computer hates me at the moment so I won't be downloading them.
The key to ice cream cupcakes are aluminum cupcake wrappers. You can make them in a tin without the wrappers, but these suckers tend to melt pretty fast in the AZ heat, so the wrappers are helpful. Plus they make it a LOT easier to get these puppies out of the pan!

Once you have the wrappers (make sure to take the papers out from between the aluminum cups) you need to have a base to your cupcake. Joy has used brownies once and cake another time. I used an Oreo cookie crust. Whatever you use, you want it to fill about the bottom 1/3 of your cupcake.

Once the base is done you are ready for the ice cream. Let the ice cream soften up so that is is scoopable and spreadable. Scoop it into the cup on top of your 'base' and spread it so that it fills in all the spaces. Then comes the hard part. You need to find space in your freezer for the cupcake pans. I wish you luck. It took a small miracle and changing the dinner menu to find the space in mine. One of these days I will break down and get a second freezer.

Once the ice cream has hardened again, you are ready for the 'frosting'. Chocolate ganache works really well. So does Cool Whip. But I am not a Cool Whip fan, so I would stick with the the chocolate ganache. Whatever you choose, spread it on top of the ice cream and stick it back in the freezer to harden.

Then cover and leave in the freezer until you are ready to eat them.


PS - To make an Oreo crust for 24 cupcakes use half of a package of Oreos crushed up and 1/4 of a cup of butter mixed together. Press into the cupcake wrapper with a cup.

PPS - The 'frosting' I made was actually Cool Whip and Hershey's syrup mixed together.

PPPS - Oreo crust, mint chocolate chip ice cream and the crazy chocolate Cool Whip topping is the cake that Hubby always request for his birthday. You can make it in a 9x 13 Pyrex too. Just use the entire package of Oreos for the crust, then cover with an entire 1/2 gallon of ice cream, and then frost with the Cool Whip mixture.

PPPPS - Did you know that most ice creams don't come in 1/2 gallons anymore. They are now 2 quarts. Sneaky way to cut cost instead of raising prices.

PPPPPS - If you are ever looking for ideas, PLEASE email me at lorieblogs (at) gmail (dot) com. I would love to help you look for ideas for just about anything!
