Cupcake fondue party

When it's time to have a party, kids know just what to do. My kids don’t often get fancy desserts, so when they earned a party for a week of good behavior we went all out. We decided to throw a cupcake fondue party for their reward.

The process of planning our special party was half the fun! I let the kids pick out the frosting colors and toppings they wanted to use for their treats. They picked springy pastels in various flavors for the frosting and a cute assortment of sparkles and confetti for decorations.

Supplies:

• Mini cupcakes
• Frosting
• Frosting flavors
• A variety of toppings
• Cookie sticks or plastic forks
• Little containers or cupcake liners

Instructions:

When we got home, we laid out all our goodies.

We started by putting our cupcakes on our sticks. This was a little tricky for my 2-year-old at first.

Then we dipped our cupcakes in our frosting fondue.

I let them each choose two things to decorate with. My daughter liked the sparkly sugar the best!

After we made a lovely bouquet of cupcakes, I let them enjoy!

The cupcakes tasted as good as they looked, and my kids had so much fun dipping their dessert!
