Carnival Party: Cupcake Stand

Back on January 1st, I went out on a date with the hubs and we had some time to kill before our show started so I took him to Walmart. I had already combed the after Christmas clearance, but wanted to see what was left. Lo and behold, I saw this cupcake stand for 75% off! That made it $5. The hubs wasn’t impressed but I knew it would be mine! (If you hadn’t noticed, I am avoiding using the word tree. It is supposed to look like a tree, but I see a whimsical spiral. Right? Right?)

To liven up the cupcakes a bit I made lollipops from a mold I found at Joanns. I have used candy melts several times, but never made lollipops like this. It was pretty time consuming, but I loved how they turned out.

For the actual cakes I got these big top cupcake and cookie molds. I am really terrible at cake decorating and I thought this would be easy enough to handle. I have baked them but not assembled them yet. So far it has been easy!
