Four Banana Cupcakes

We're on a fairly unexpected/short notice trip to Texas. Cramming in quite a bit in a week, but making the most of our time in our favorite state!
I had a second and wanted to share the cupcakes we made for Carter's class for her birthday. This was my first go at "Classroom Cupcakes" and they turned out really cute. My mom had a great idea for decorating the top, stamping Necco Wafers with a food coloring "C"...

We then made banana cupcakes with banana icing so we would have something yummy to put our decorations on...




This was a lot of fun and you could spell out just about anything! I'll leave you with a few other pic's from our "family birthday" (seriously the celebration of turning 4 seemed to never end! And a fun video of Carter and her daddy dancing on her birthday...what a dad...

Oh my gosh, Carter is a crack up, I love her dancing... So how did you use the food coloring to make it look uniform? I definitely want to try to do that!!! I love the idea. Could you email me or FB me to tell me? Hope you guys are having fun!

Love the cake. Looks similar to Roxy's 1st or 2nd birthday cake. Not that I remember it, but Granny has a pic. Can't wait for y'all to come HOME!
