I was wondering if anyone has ever seen a cupcake cake in the shape of a pumpkin? My son's class is doing a cake walk for a Fall Carnival tomorrow and I was wanting to try something new and different. I have never tried a cupcake cake....but I read a tutorial on it. The problem I am worried about it getting the cupcakes arranged in the right shape. If anyone has any ideas or advise I would really appreciate it. Oh and by the way I will be posting the pictures of my first wedding cake in a few days....thanks to all who helped in that journey!

go to brightideas.com they have one

Oh Oh OH!!!!!!! I just read about something cute!!!! (sorry, can't contain my excitement). Get some of those mini bundt pans, and place two of the mini cakes flat sides together, and they form little pumpkins with ridges!! Cute, huh??

I was thinking of doing the same thing for my boyz I also saw a spider in the galleries that is way cool!!

I made my first CCC for my sons class in the shape of a hot air balloon!!
I placed the cupcake holders on the cake board to play around with the shape.


I cant wait to see your photo when your done

Good luck!!

Thanks for the ideas and hopefully someone can take a pic of it for me.....i don't have a camera just yet...but working on it. BTW....I'm baking the cupcakes as we speak lol so wish me luck...i've never done a CCC before.
