Instructions

Before the Cupcake Project begins:
Bake cupcakes the morning of the Party ~or ~ Use a Cupcake Maker to blend the cupcake making into the party.

Depending on the ages of the girls, dress table with a washable tablecloth.

If using a premade frosting, stir before setting out to ensure smooth application.

Arrange Cupcake decor on a divided plate or two. I highly suggest Lazy Susan-style trays as shown below.

Provide a Cupcake tower for cupcakes as they are completed. Kids just love to see their artwork displayed.

Timing... I highly suggest having the Cupcake Making portion of the party AFTER the food is served. Think of what candy does to the appetite, cuz no matter what, you will find you'll have more party food than you can eat, and much less decorations on cupcakes than you have supplied. You find this will occur even after the guests have eaten, but perhaps the cupcakes will catch more of the decor. :D
