Hamburger & Hot Dog Cupcakes

Make it a sweet backyard barbecue with our Hamburger and Hot Dog cupcakes. This is a great idea for the kids to help!

I teach a Baking Camp for kids in the summer and this is one of the top decorating tips. It is so fun to see the kids get excited about making this and surprising their parents. Well, sometimes the kids eat the cupcakes before their parents get to see them.

It’s faux food – let’s see if the kids can figure out it is a vanilla cupcake and a Twinkie for the buns.

Watch my How-To video to see how easy it is to create.

 

You will need:

Cupcakes (yellow cake and chocolate cake for the Hamburgers)

Twinkies for the Hot Dogs

Red and Yellow icing for the Kethup and Mustard (using red and yellow food coloring)

Coconut or Green Icing for the lettuce (using green food coloring)

Two Tootsie rolls per hot dog

White sprinkles or sesame seeds for the bun

Freezer zip loc bag to pipe the frosting

Corn syrup
