Puffy Cupcake Craft

Puffy cupcakes. How much fun are these!?!?!  

Supplies: 
Glue
Shaving cream
Food coloring 
Plastic sandwich bag
Thick card stock
Cotton balls
Cupcake liner

Cut the cupcake liners in half and slightly bend the edges to create a surface to glue down.


Glue cupcake let halves on lower 1/2 of paper. Stuff with cotton balls to give support. Make sure to create a mound on top too. (See picture below.)


Next comes the fun and messy part! Dump a 50/50 mixture of shaving cream to glue into the plastic bag and add food coloring if you'd like to make a specific color. 
 (Rather than give a specific measurement this ratio gives you the flexibility to make a batch in whatever size you want or making multiple smaller matches.)


Now zip the bag *tightly* and let your little one squish and mix!


Carefully snip a corner off the bag and let you little one "frost" the cupcakes. Make sure you cover the cotton balls.


Add sprinkles or decorations if you'd like. 


Set of on a flat surface to dry. They will need at least 24 hours (or more) depending on how thick it is.
