I made this cake for a baby shower. Turned out perfect and looked like the photo online. I didn't use store bought mini-cupcakes. I made my own. I didn't bake the cupcakes in the liners. This made the cake look better.

I did a test run of these for Easter, using yellow, pink and blue flavored frosting. No-one in my family liked them for some reason, maybe it was the way they tasted or something. Not a keeper.
