Have you ever seen anything cuter than a cascade of cactus cupcakes on a Mexican Fiesta Cactus Cupcake Dessert Bar? Just take a look – the vibrant green ‘plant’ and soft chocolate sponge! Just because Fiesta food is often spicy, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t include some delicious sweet stuff!
Cactus Cupcakes
Get this look by making some chocolate cupcakes, and popping them in these terra cotta pot-shaped silicone baking cups. Then, we used buttercream icing, dyed this fresh shade of cactus green. To make one type of cactus, we just piped icing stars all over the cupcake like ground cover. For the taller cactus shape, we found that icing around a marshmallow totally did the trick.
Dessert Bar Decor
And what’s a dessert bar without awesome decorations? It’s all about leading your guests on a sensory journey! This cupcake stand look shouts ‘Hello! I’m here, come and get me!’ The printable decor set includes gorgeous mini cake / cupcake bunting in 8 vibrant Fiesta shades – with a doily design, editable text design and color block design. Stringing it on twine one of those lovely details that makes a party, a Fiesta!
And the cactus cutouts just set the scene – six different designs to adorn your Fiesta Dessert Bar! Ole!
Delicious!
Lotsa cactus cupcake love,
