Looking for a great mid-day snack? How about something to serve your kid and his or her friends while they are doing their homework together or just enjoying the summer sun outdoors? In such situations where bringing a whole cake might cause more misery than fun due to its size, why not bake a few cupcakes for kids.
Kid’s cupcakes are quite easy to make, and a lot of fun to do with your kids. Try a couple of different frostings, as you can add color and flavor that can make the task of baking and preparing a lot more fun and meaningful. Let your kids be creative. Have them do all the finishings for their kiddie cupcakes one Sunday afternoon and let their imagination run wild. Be sure to have enough candy sprinkles, chocolate chips, chocolate and strawberry syrup, and jelly beans present as they will surely try to put in as much toppings and color in their work as much as they can.
There are many recipes for cupcakes that are perfect for kids that you can find on the Internet too, pretty much like birthday cake recipes. You can also actually use cake recipes and bake the cake dough in smaller cups for cupcakes as opposed to full baking trays and end up with different flavored cupcakes like lemon, orange, peanut butter, and vanilla.
