Fireworks are one of my favorite things about the 4th of July. They give us quite a show as their spectacular colors burst into the night sky. Since the 4th of July is this weekend, I decided to celebrate early by making 4th of July "Fireworks" cupcakes. Everyone loves a good cupcake! I love that these cute, little cakes can be customized for just about every occasion!
Vanilla cupcakes can easily be dressed up for the 4th of July using blue frosting and red, white, and blue cupcake liners. Two-color foil picks create firework bursts on top. Then, to create the perfect display, I used 4th of July paper trays to hold all my patriotic cupcakes.
