Cuppy Cuppy Cupcakes


Have you ever heard the Cuppycake song sung by Shirley Temple, when she was a little girl? 

It starts out, "You're my  honey bunch, sugarplum, pumpy-umpy-umpkin..." and eventually in the lyrics you'll hear, "cuppy cuppy cuppy cake...."

 The first time I ever heard that song, it was so adorable that I laughed for hours.

 Check it out on YouTube here!  You'll get a kick out of it.


Well, tonight, after a very full day, I made cuppy, cuppy cupcakes for a teenager.

You know how they love sweets! 

 These were dark chocolate from a mix and I made cream cheese frosting, tinted orange.

The decorations, tiny little orange pumpkins, were on sale for only 60 cents for a whole container at Michael's Craft Store!

DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE HALLOWEEN SONG?

    I had a little trouble getting to the song , but I did it. I LOVE Shirley Temple - and I had never heard that song - I wonder what movie it was for?

    I love HALLOWEEN and those cupcakes look so good.

    I love the Monster Mash!

    You too.
