These cupcakes take a bit of time to construct all of the details, but the end results are TOTALLY worth it! This is definitely something I would make if I were hosting some sort of game night, or even for some gamer’s birthday, y’know? So if that sounds like something that would interest you, the instructions below will take you step by step into making these awesome cupcakes!
What might sound really good, would be to try mixing this recipe with our Pudding Filled Cupcakes recipe to make these Mario and Peach Cupcakes SUPER delicious!

Now remember, you don’t need to be a major artist to make these cupcakes.  you can grab any image you want from the internet and trace it.  We explain more of this process in each recipe below.  However, if you are a visual person and need to see this process with many photos, please check out our Chocolate Fox Cupcake Toppers tutorial here.  Basically we did the same process here but with chocolate.

Speaking of the Mario franchise, I recently purchased a Wii U, and this new Mario Party game is tons of fun! Especially when you have a lot of people to play with!
