Princess Cupcakes

These Princess Cupcakes are absolutely precious. The cupcakes in this photo are chocolate sponge cupcakes, made with free range eggs and Green and Black Organic Cocoa.

I am including a chocolate sponge recipe for chocolate lovers. If you want to use a box mix for your cupcakes,I would suggest a Funfetti, or pink cake mix. Little Girls love pink cupcakes.

Any pink icing will work. A sugar cookie cut out with pink sugar crystals works as a topper for your Princess Cupcake. Or, you may want to get edible sugar toppers instead. I love the cupcake stand. It makes a great centerpiece for your birthday table. The pink liners are so pretty in pink too.

For another Princess Idea, take a look at this cute castle in Gallery of Cake Designs.

You are going to have so much fun shopping for your Princess party favors. There are so many to choose from, and one is prettier than the next.

Your little Princess will love the party, and you will too.
