First you will need to bake some cupcakes and ice them - a nice thick coat.
Second you will need mini marshmallows - I used kitchen scissors and cut them at a diagonal.
That will expose a sticky side of the marshmallow's. Dip that in colored sugar. We had red, orange and green. We had bought the sugar to use on home made mints for my wedding - but it didn't work like we thought. So we already had the sugar on hand - Score!!! I think we are going to make these cupcakes again for my little sisters bridal shower - using her wedding colors!
Arrange the marshmallow's as petals - I used a gum drop for a center to work around. But you wouldn't have to do that.
We made about 70 of these and used a bag and half of mini marshmallow's and 1 bag of gumdrops.
I got a lot of compliments on them! Give them a try!
And check out another great blog This Uncharted Rhoade - she has tried several items from Pinterest!

They turned out wonderful. I do doubt I would go to that much work though, it would have to be a special occasion.
