BASEBALL CUPCAKES

Display your party or baby shower cupcakes on baseball themed tableware with banners and tablecloths covered in baseballs, bats and colors of your favorite team. Whether you are a fan of the Cardinals, Braves or the New York Yankees, there are decorations and baseball invitations to complete the look and atmosphere that you are after for your baseball theme party.

If an entire tray of white baseballs with red stitching or stitching in your team's colors leaves you feeling the need for some variety, perhaps you should explore your options for baseball glove cupcake ideas. There are several ways to get pictures or shapes of baseball mitts on your cupcakes. You can frost the main layer and then frost an outline of a mitt on top or you can buy a ready made mitt to decorate the tops of your baseball cupcakes. Guess which one takes less time? Another quick and easy way to spice up your cupcakes and add some color is with baseball cupcake sprinkles.

Baseball shaped sprinkles take a lot of the work out of designing and decorating the cakes. Make a large frosting swirl on the tops, sprinkle them lightly with the colorful sprinkles and call it!

Another quick and easy way to take your cupcakes in a baseball direction is to place a small sugar bat, baseball glove or your team logo in the center of a smoothly frosted cake.
