Let The Good Times Roll! Quick and Easy Mardi Gras Cupcake toppers. Peeps!  via @KitchenKelli

Mardi Gras Peeps Cupcakes - Kellis Kitchen

Looking for a quick and easy way to dress up your cupcakes for Mardi Gras?  If you have a Mardi Gras party coming up and don’t have time to make a King Cake – although here is a really easy one – you can still be the hit of the party.

You’ll need:

  • Cupcakes- any flavor! Topped with White icing (or any color, really)
  • Yellow, Green, and Purple Peeps (pink looks great, too).

Instructions:

  • Make some cupcakes with white icing (or buy some) and buy some Peeps in Mardi Gras colors.
  • Separate the peeps and stick them into the icing on top of each cupcake!

Aren’t they cute??  LOVE IT.  I bet you could do this for an Easter party as well!

    Very good idea. Some members of my family would skip the cake and just eat the Peeps.

      My secret is that sometimes I order them directly from the Peeps company – I love Peeps! 🙂
