valentine's day Despicable Me Minion cupcakes, super cute snowman cupcakes and Oreo and mini cupcake edible cupcake toppers

I'm really not sure how I missed these Despicable Me Minion cupcakes (and, yes, full confession time again: I have not actually seen Despicable Me by Confessions of a Cookbook Queen, because if I had I surely would've blogged them. They're made with Twinkies! And smarties, candy melts, licorice and a black food marker. See her post above for exact instructions. Photo via Flickr.

valentine's day Snowmen with hats and scarves, Christmas tree, Peppermint Twist and Stuffoli cupcakes at Sweet Avenue Bake Shop

This post is sortof cheating, because these cupcakes are not all actually on sale today from Rutherford, New Jersey's Sweet Avenue Bake Shop, but if you like what you see, you should follow them on Facebook so you can find out about their daily specials. These were on sale in the month of October and if one particularly tickles your fancy, they also do custom cupcakes (and are known for both their vegan cupcake offerings and their famous Twilight cupcakes - see more about their custom printed cupcakes here). All photos via this Facebook album. Happy holidays everyone! Not that this will be my last holiday cupcake post, but just wanted to wish you all a happy holiday.

Struffoli cupcakes - if you can't read the caption, it says "Italian fried honey balls on over vanilla cakes filled and topped with creamy vanilla glaze." It's like two desserts in one!
