I noticed a reader’s comment on a past post and when I checked out the link I realized I should share it with everyone.  I know Halloween is months away but just in case you need a cupcake costume for another occasion, here is a fun option: Cupcake Ohh!Veralls! You have over a dozen cupcake styles to choose from and prices range from $90-225, depending on the style.

At the end cupcakes costumes are overwhelmingly sweet.

Just wanted to share pictures of my daughter’s cupcake costume (instructions from the Food Network). Thought you would get a kick out of it.  I thought it was the most original costume I saw all night…maybe I’m a little biased! ;-)

Hello! My daughter was thrilled with her cupcake costume this year, and to have Mommy as her baker!:)

The costume was custom made by Brittany sweetplume.etsy.com
The Pink Sprinkles Cupcakes Earrings were custom by SaintsNSinners.etsy.com
Cupcake Tote(for trick or treating): lmgboutique.etsy.com
My Cupcake Party Hat: tiffytart.etsy.com

Enjoy!:)

First I bought yardage of felt online in light pink and brown, I laid out some guesstimations as to how wide I wanted the diameter of the ‘icing’ to drape outward and the skirt length/volume of the ‘ripples’ for the cup. The rest thereafter was just taking things in to fit perfectly. Also, to add more cupcake volume/goodness, I added a second and third layer of ‘icing’ that would tie on across the bust and back. Felt is a very forgiving fabric and was so fun to work with! I topped off the ‘icing’ with an array of complimentary colored jimmies to complete the ensemble! And lastly, I created a fabulous headband with a giant, bead-adorned strawberry; whipped cream frills and a white ribbon burst for a touch of girly-charm.

Some cupcakes do scare me: super dry cake with face crushingly sweet frosting. These dear readers find their own scary cupcakes.  One in a Tim Burton inspired creation, the second as the victim to those seeking her sweetness!

I am an avid follower of the website and I have a huge cupcake obsession that is constantly fueled by the amazing cupcakey goodness I find there! I live in the UK and cupcakes are not as celebrated here as I think they should be. So, with this in mind, I decided to make a personal homage to the cupcake with a Tim Burton-esque cupcake costume for Halloween! It is entirely handmade, from the purple glittery cherry on my head to the handmade bows on my shoes! This is my first attempt at a handmade costume and I was so proud of my efforts that I wanted to share them with All Things Cupcake and fellow cupcake fans.

I hope you like it!

So, not only do I have a cupcake tattoo (that you’ve featured) I went all out on a big cupcake costume for halloween.  At each bar I went to, the doormen were sending people to find me because they thought my costume was just so incredible.  Embarrassing and flattering, especially when I was wearing a laundry basket as the base of the cupcake. – Kelly from NY

It isn’t the materials that make a memorable costume,
it is the imagination and soul!

I got cupcake necklace & resin cupcakes at Etsy & glued to sunglasses. Made my hat myself out of styrofoam. I also make the dogs costumes myself also out of styrofoam & lampshades. The real looking cupcakes I made out of insulating foam in a can. – Lisa from Huntington Beach CA (more pics)

Thanks for the inspiration!  I finally got to the fabric store and rigged up this cupcake costume for my adorable niece.  There’s a pink headband with a cherry on top; we’ll see if she actually manages to keep that on for trick-or-treating. – Laura

Made from recycled materials, nothing was bought.  enjoy :) – M.Peralta

Thank you readers for the Halloween cupcake submissions.  We are always happy to hear from you!  Unfortunately, I received so many that not all of them can be posted, but I will do my best to post throughout this week the best reader cupcakes I have received!

I know this submission is kind of late, but I thought I would share anyway. I made rainbow cupcakes with Jack Skellington frosting. I know rainbows and halloween don’t usually go together, but I can’t help it, I love any and everything colorful and cupcake and I adore Nightmare Before Christmas, so I just combined my loves into a colorful and cute treat. I also have a cupcake tattoo on my foot.

Love your blog, thanks!
