Candy Cupcakes

If you are looking for a fun and easy cupcake project, join cake designer Rachael Teufel in this free lesson to learn how to turn traditional candy into a creative cupcake. Candy is a ready-made treat that can add lots of flavors, texture, and color to an otherwise plain cupcake.

There is a large variety of candy styles and shapes available and just about all of it would be suitable as a cupcake topping. Don’t be afraid to pick some unique candies to spice up the flavor profile or tone down the sweetness with a sour addition. Coordinate your design in advance with specialty candy, or let the candy dictate the pattern for you—either way the design options are endless with just a little bit of creativity.

Rachael will inspire you to think outside of the “candy” box with a geometric rainbow pattern and a colorful flower. So whip up a batch of cupcakes and grab your favorite candies to have some fun!
