It's unfortunate that as soon as the package is opened, they get stale very, very quickly. I wasn't too worried about that happening, because I expected they would get eaten in no time and they're just so cute I couldn't resist using them. My real motivation was making them for my daughter's nieces, because there are no grandkids in my life yet - which is a whole other story and I'm probably going to get really OCD baking for my own g'kids once they're here! ;)
Here's the finished product, from the Easter Bunny to the girls:
Very simple and "old school" this year - vanilla rainbow sprinkle cake mix, topped by buttercream frosting tinted a very light green (doesn't show up well), some green sprinkles and, of course, Peeps!
And here they are, packed up to go:
I hope the girls enjoyed them - I know the big kids had fun eating the other cupcakes and ripping off their little heads. ;)
