How to Make Teddy Bear Vacation Cupcakes

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) for shiny pans or 325°F (165°C) for dark or nonstick pans.
  2. Line a 24-cup muffin tin with baking cups.
  3. Prepare your favorite boxed cake mix according to package directions. (Use a white or vanilla cake mix)
  4. Evenly distribute the cake batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ full.
  5. Bake for the time specified on the cake mix box, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean (approximately 18-22 minutes).
  6. Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely (approximately 30 minutes).
  7. While cupcakes cool, prepare your frosting. Stir in blue food coloring until you reach your desired shade.
  8. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them evenly.
  9. Prepare your decorations: Cut 1 ½-inch pieces from a fruit roll-up, peeling off the paper backing. These will be your beach towels.
  10. Decorate each cupcake with the fruit snack “beach towel”, crushed Teddy Grahams, blue sanding sugar, teddy bear graham crackers, small umbrellas, gummy candies, and fish-shaped crackers to create a fun beach scene.
