Tips to Make teacher Appreciation Cupcakes
- Start with your favorite vanilla cupcakes. I always use my Internet-famous Lazy Girl Cupcakes because they are no-fail and consistent.
- Never, ever frost your cupcakes while they’re still warm. They may be super tasty warm, but frosting and warm cupcakes make a mess.
- You can make your own delicious homemade buttercream frosting or canned frosting – whichever is best for you. The teachers will love them, I promise.
