Ever eaten a caterpillar before? Me neither. But if it is as cute as this one and as yummy, sign me up.

Coco Cake Cupcakes has developed this cute idea.  While the site doesn’t provide a recipe for the fondant for the legs, antenna, and the eyes, I think I could find a recipe online.  (Isn’t that what Google is all about?  Finding stuff??)  Or, I think I could even use candy like licorice for those body parts.

You might want to take some time to scroll through the Coco Cake Cupcake site to see some of their fun ideas.  Coco Cake Cupcakes is a catering business in Vancouver, Canada, that specializes in cup cakes.  How fun!

CakeSpy.com has a tempting Hot Cocoa Cupcake with Cream Cheese Frosting recipe. Sounds divine.  And you have just GOT to take a look at CakeSpy’s one year anniversay celebration.  I’ve never seen such cute pigs.  And their Blonde Blondies. . .

Well!  You’d think that I’m hungry or something.  Which I’m not.  Really.  Not even.  Well.  Maybe I just have the munchies for something sweet.  Maybe.

You know, you might want to spend an afternoon or evening in the kitchen with a grandchild baking cupcakes and decorating them.  And of course eating them afterward.   This is an activity that grandchildren of all ages can enjoy doing with grandma.  A fun way for grandchildren to express their culinary creativity.

You could even do a ‘make it and take it’ activity where you make and decorate the cupcakes and then select someone to take your creation to.  Just make sure you have enough that you can eat — and to send home with your grandchild!

Bon appétit!
