What’s the Project? These super cute and easy Halloween cupcakes with pumpkin faces are a perfect addition to any Halloween party or just something fun to make for the kids.
It probably won’t be long before you start to realize that I have a major thing for cupcakes! I am absolutely addicted to making them and of course, I love to eat them. Usually, I just love a yummy cupcake (especially if it’s chocolate), but make it as cute as these and I really swoon!
I am a MAJOR sucker for anything with those cute little eyes too!
These easy Halloween cupcakes take about 10 minutes to decorate-so quick and easy and those little pumpkin faces are so cute, aren’t they?
Wouldn’t these be perfect for a Halloween party? They are so cute and you could decorate a bunch of them really quickly and easily and they’ll make a darling addition to any party.
Or they are easy enough to make that you could let the kids join you in making them! Could be fun to make at home too!
