BBQ cupcake TUTORIAL - Mini BBQ GRILL tops! SO SUPER CUTE!

I made these last year for Memorial Day and for a themed teacher luncheon a couple of years ago. ALWAYS a huge hit!!

BBQ GRILL CUPCAKES!!! 


Gummy bears, Parchment paper or wax paper, sparkle gel, candy melts, food color,
 toothpicks, and edible markers


Gummy bear cruelty. Cut the gummy bears apart into threes. Hubby thought I was having an anger issue and not sure why I was cutting the heads off gummy bears. Haha! 

Shish Kabobs!!!

I used the top to a large sprinkle container to trace my template. Perfect size!

Melted and mixed black candy melts and white candy melts. 

I used a #2 tip and placed parchment paper over my template and traced grill tops :) 

I did the same thing in THIS POST and it has a little more detail pictures.

Made a few extra incase they break when removing them.

Once done I placed them in the fridge to dry and harden faster. You can do room temp but they melt in your hands too fast. 

Made cheese

I made these kinda fast and now looking at the pic they look like more like poo patties then hamburgers....ummm....I'm glad I added the cheese :)

Colored my icing yellow and orange

alternated colors when filling the bag 




 I don't like dark colors or red since they stain kids teeth/mouth :/ I opted for Wilton Sparkle Gel for red. 
Great for cupcakes but doesn't dry well so I would not recommended it for cookies.


Placed my grill tops


Then all the BBQ "food" 
Mini hamburgers (some with cheese and some without,) kabobs, and steaks. 
All made from candy melts except the kabobs.

TA-DAAAA!!!

KIDS Valentine's Day Card - non-candy idea for a School / Class PARTY - Fake mustache

Here is a cute and easy non-candy Valentine's Day card idea.

I LOVE how these turned out! I was going to just print 4x6 pics and attach the mustache but after the photoshoot I spent the extra money and ordered double sided card stock cards :/ Pricey...yes but 1hr photo printing just didn't do them justice.

FRONT



BACK




I found these mustaches at a local party store for .19 cents



I was going to attach them over their face to match the mustaches in the picture to look 3D but the double sided tape would tear the card when the kids took it off. :( I just stapled them to the back.

Now what we did for Valentine's Day....

I wanted to share this WAY before Valentine's Day but I didn't get much of it done until the night before. Posting for ideas for next year. 

The boys hand out chocolate dipped marshmallows too!!! 

I made cute Happy Valentine's Day tags for the marshmallows.
I used a 1 7/16 scalloped lever punch by recollections (purchased at Michael's) or a 1" circle punch.

They have a personalized tag in the back...awww


Remember THESE rubber band bracelets my son was obsessed making!? He made Valentine's Day ones for the girls.....yes, GIRLS with a S!!!! Oh dear! 3rd grade and I'm in trouble :/

Little box of chocolates, dipped marshmallow, and the bracelet in a small pink bag. 

We also made something similar for all the teachers with Lindor truffles.


Hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day!

Special notes - Valentine's Day COUNTDOWN! {{advent}} FUN for the kids


Super cute advent calendar to countdown the days to Valentine's Day. I made this to go on the side of our fridge. Love how it turned out!


I found the plastic heart boxes at HEB (grocery store) for $1.25 and I just happen to have stickers that had a bunch of exclamation marks for all the ones :) Magnets were purchased at Michael's Craft Store.

hot glued magnets to the back


CANDY!!!

Caramel kisses....yummmmm!


BUT I thought it would be cute to add little notes that say what I love about them in each heart. So I made these adorable....A-DOR-A-BLE mini envelopes made from a heart!!! :)








I colored a little heart on the back of each one and on the front it says To: and one for each boy 





The boys are soooooo excited to open them!
