Marzipan Mario and Mushroom Cupcakes

Mario Cupcakes. For video game lovers, Mario Brothers cupcakes are just too cute. All ages love Nintendo, so these mushroom cupcakes are the perfect theme for many. My son and his friends grew up playing Nintendo. Even now as adults Super Mario Brother cupcakes would make them smile.

These Mario cupcakes themed cupcakes and cake were made by Rakka. I saw them and could not resist.

Marzipan is sweet, so I would recommend using a plain vanilla cupcake. The plain vanilla icing works well with the food tint too. The majic mushroom cupcakes also have some chocolate icing. You can purchase marzipan, or make your own. If you decide to make your own, I would try using the recipe below.
