valentine's day Up inspired New Year's balloon cupcakes

How fun are these cupcakes, inspired by the movie Up and made by Sarah-Lyn at the blog i Bake Cupcakes (via Flickr)? She writes:

I love the animated movie UP and have wanted to make UP inspired cupcakes for a while now. New Years seemed like a great time to do them because the movie has such a wonderful inspiring message I think, perfect for the new year. Simply, live life with no regrets and appreciate the journey you've taken because every journey is grand in it's own way.

These cupcakes are by blogger i Bake Cupcakes, who you can also follow on Facebook, and who is baking up all kinds of adorable cupcakes, for the holidays and just for fun. Via her Flickr account.


Not only are these glittery and beautiful, they're gluten-free and cranberry, with "vanilla buttercream icing dyed blue with sprinkled white sugar and crushed clear mints on top; the snowflakes were made of fondant, white sugar and meringue."

Look inside:

Daphne Blake: Peach buttercream, orange chocolate melting wafers (hair), black icing, green fruit chew (tie).

And then, because I just couldn't resist...a spicy apple tree cupcake! It was made for Iron Cupcake: Earth last year. Wow. Just wow.
