Inedible Sparkling Pastry Decor

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Glitter Cupcake Ornaments Help Curb Your Sweet Tooth

— December 15, 2012 — Special
Hanging candy canes on your Christmas tree may be a little too tastefully tempting, so instead, opt for inedible glitter cupcake ornaments. They look scrumptiously sparkly and the arguably good news is that you can't devour them. This way, they won't add to the abundance of holiday treats you find yourself snacking on throughout the season.

These cute glitter cupcake ornaments use a silver bulb that is hand-painted. The bottom base is like a pastry sleeve and the top of the bulb mimics the melting waves of sweet vanilla icing. A cute sparkly bow that matches the glitter strands on the bulb is the topping of choice for each cupcake.

These tasty tree ornaments are made by Etsy shop owner Stephanie who is from Saucy Designz.
