I have a friend who wants cupcakes with cars on them. It doesn't have to be exactly like "Cars", the movie, although the birthday boy likes the movie. She mentioned something about doing a road and/or a stand-up checkered flag too!! I was thinking I could just find a mini car cutter and do flat cars out of fondant, but my two favor cutter websites don't have mini car cutters!!
I tried steering her toward a cupcake cake, but she really wants individual cupcakes. Grrr...
HELP!!
I get to make car cupcakes this weekend for a baby shower. The theme was "Boys and Toys"...with planes, trains, and cars. I have a set of 24 matchbox cars that I got at Tuesday Morning for $5 that I'll use to top some of the cupcakes, then I thought about baking some cupcakes without the liner, flipping them upside down, frosting with fondant (quick-pour, maybe), and adding little oreos for wheels, m&ms for lights, and either fondant or fruit roll-ups for windows. The latter is probably more time consuming than you'd like, though. Just thought I'd share with you what I was planning...

I made these......if she's looking for a road you could do this......it's super easy and these cars are just some chocolate nascar cars I found at the grocery store. I just used the large icer tip and flipped it over so the smooth side was up to pipe the black on and the green is just the grass/fur tip.....super easy!
Oh my gosh both are so cute. I did a cars cake for my grandson. I have yet to try a CC. I guess I am too chicken!!!! Good luck with yours. I am sure you will do fine. Don't forget to post some pics.
Mel,
I totally love the race track cupcakes. I guess I could make those for our house for the Daytona(first race of the season) coming up in Febr. My family would totally love em.
