Valentine Mini Cupcakes in a Heart shaped box!

This idea comes from the amazing cook book called:

“Hello Cupcake!”

(You can purchase this book from my amazon slide show down on the
right hand side of this blog.)
Oh my gosh let me tell you how many amazing cupcake ideas there are in there! We decided to make this particular Valentine cupcake treat and deliver them to some special people for our Youth Night Activity. We used a basic box cake mix and whipped up the batter and baked them. I found mini red cupcake liners and lots of candies (I found the Valentine candy corns, and the marshmallow shaped hearts at Target).
Once baked you frost the cupcakes with a lighter colored chocolate frosting and then start decorating until your hearts desired. (no pun intended).

The cupcakes with the squiggles on them are actually mini cupcakes with marshmallows dipped in melted chocolate frosting and then squiggled with either white or milk chocolate frosting on them. All the ingredients and candies are listed in the cookbook. It is just so adorable don’t you think?
Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
