Snowman Cupcake Designs

I am posting some of my favorite and hoping you enjoy them. Of course you can bake any cupcake you like and than add the snowman design. The Cupcake Recipe below is a Christmas time favorite of mine, for white chocolate cupcakes. I've included some photos of favorite designs.

If you share Christmas baking with your children, the snowman cupcake with a simple marshmallow design is simple and fun. Or Fondant with a cookie cutter. How much fun is this, your Frosty won't melt.

Imagine wishing on snowflakes. Happy cup-caking this Holiday Season.
