The cupcake frosting for this kind of toppers can be either white, cream or some other pale color. Dark colors may not be such a great idea, so it’s better perhaps to avoid them. There are no special cupcake recipes for baby shower. Any cupcake batter will do, so you can take any recipe you like and instead of its common icing use the themed decorations.

Ladybug Cupcakes Hard Sugar Decorations

Back to our ladybug cupcakes, here’s an example of edible hard sugar decorations available on Amazon for as little as $6.58 for 16 pieces. Made 100% from sugar and food coloring, these decorations are Kosher certified and safe for children’s consumption. Even so, children parties should be closely supervised by adults, because a small child could choke with such decorations if left unattended.
The sugar ladybugs are 1 inch in size, so each cupcake would probably accommodate only one on top of it. Nonetheless, if you decide to use the decorations for a bigger cake, you can arrange the cute little bugs around some hard sugar flowers. The effect on your little party guests is guaranteed.

Crazy Bug Flexible Silicone Pan

The kids would be sorry to eat their dessert because they will want to keep it. This cupcakes pan measures 10 3/4” x 8 ¼” x 1 1/4″, it is dishwasher safe and can be used in the hot oven up to 450 F. One pan bakes 8 cupcakes, muffins or gelatin figures.
