    Great ideas of decorating cupcakes but the fluff frosting is just awful!!! no wonder it says to use it right away, it melts!!!! Did they even test this before posting it here??? I have to rush to the store and just bought ready made frosting (just like the rest of the reviewers since I am out of time! I always cook from scratch and this is just a disaster!!

    I made this yesterday and it was absolutely adorable! I had 24 cupcakes total, sitting on a clear tray. Everyone loved them. The only thing is that it is very time consuming. I also couldn't find white airheads, but they still looked cute anyway.

    I'll start by saying that I've received TONS of compliments on these already! They are too cute! I made the cupcakes from a mix, in the interest of time. I also used my own buttercream recipe. And, since I couldn't find white airhead candy, I made the eggs out of marshmallow fondant. My suggestion is to frost the cupcake, then place the peep and egg on top. Next, add the robin eggs. Last, add the coconut everywhere else. This way, everything sticks nicely! Thanks for such an adorable decorating idea!

    Okay, so I just made the cupcakes.
    I used pillsbury french vanilla mix to make the cupcakes and french vanilla frosting. I added blue food coloring to make it blue.
    The coconut grass was easy to make.

    I didnt like using the airhead candy. it was hard to cut out.
    Overall, the peeks stuck on the icing and so did the grass and the eggs.

    Hope it tastes yummy.

    Lana.

    The idea for this is really cute. The peeps however, would not stay put. I ended up placing a slit in the cupcake and pushed the peep in there before frosting. I also learned from another recipe, not to add anything on top of the easter grass, nothing sticks.

    These came out so cute! My kids loved decorating them! The cupcake recipe itself was really easy to make, it was just like pancake batter an poured nicely. Take care to use good cake flour and not self-rising.

    This recipe was a little difficult but totally and utterly worth it. Careful not to overmix the batter because then the cupcakes will be too chewy but other than that, they are a purely delightful mix of butter and vanilla. The frosting itself is to die for ... the whole thing combined is a sugary-wonderful addition to any Easter table. Don't be in a hurry and don't overfill the cupcake holders. I will always turn to this recipe for vanilla cupcakes!

    I used a boxed cake mix to make the process simplier. The decorating turned out so cute. My 5 yr old niece just loved making the cupcakes and working with the eggs and Peeps.

    Thanks for the decorating idea !

    I used a boxed cake mix to save time; used fondont for egg shell cause I didn't (and still don't know what White Airhead candy is; also used canned frosting as it worked just as well (and not as fattening as they have low sugar and low fat frostings out there now. Great idea though. Very impressive. Thanks for the idea.
