You will need:

12 unfrosted cupcakes, any flavor

Green buttercream frosting (get my best buttercream recipe here)

1M piping tip and disposable icing bag

White fondant

Parchment paper

Assorted Jelly Belly ® jelly beans

MY AMAZON PICKS (affiliate links):

First roll the white fondant into two 6” ropes for each cupcake

Next twist the fondant ropes together.

Now curve the ropes into a basket handle and place on parchment paper.  Let dry 12 hours or overnight.

Then, pipe the green buttercream frosting using a 1M piping tip on top of the cupcakes

Next, place a few of the Jelly Belly® jelly beans in the middle of the cupcake.

Finally push the fondant basket handle on top of the cupcake.

Now you have the best Easter cupcakes! They are so fun and easy to make and the kids will love helping! You can even use green tinted coconut for grass or use a grass piping tip. Add some colorful cupcake liners too! Use you imagination and have fun decorating these adorable Easter cupcakes!

Another fun time-saving tip is to get unfrosted cupcakes at your local grocery store bakery. They will usually sell you green frosting too if you ask and then all you have to do is decorate! Makes a fun class or Sunday school edible craft activity project too! Adding icing flowers instead of the jelly beans makes a cute Springtime treat as well, just use your imagination!
