Cupcake Birthday Cake
For a birthday treat that's as easy to make as it is to serve, it's hard to top a cupcake birthday cake.
To make, arrange cupcakes in the desired shape, pushing close together to avoid gaps. Then, frost and decorate the cupcake cluster with spray-on icing, edible and non-edible decorations, or gel and piped icing-just as if you were icing a sheet cake.
