Mini Firecracker Cupcakes
Mini Firecracker Cupcakes | Celebrate Memorial Day or the 4th of July with these fun easy to make cupcakes! Red, White and Blue Dessert never looked so good! No special recipe just good old boxed cake mix and store bought prepared frosting.
Kids AND adults will go crazy over these fun push up pops. Display them on the dessert table or put them in buckets at each place setting with sparklers.
My favorite way to display these fun pops is to use them as a centerpiece. Place them in buckets filled with COLORED RICE and sparklers. Let the guests light them all at the same time. The kids will go nuts over the sparkling display!

precious! I looove this idea!
Oh, I love them! I think I need some push pops now, too. I love the swirl of frosting on the top. What tip do you use to make it? This is such a great idea and you could use it for almost every holiday by changing the colors and sprinkles. Brilliant! Thanks for sharing on Sweet Indulgences Sunday!
These are so cute and festive. I’ll have to remember this for our July 4th family party!
Thanks for sharing with So Sweet Sundays! 🙂

Mmmmmmm. I think I know the exact reason I’ve spent so much time perfecting red cake and icing. Thank you for this wonderful idea!
I was wondering what brand of push pop you used? I just bought some to start emptying and they are cardboard??
I’m sorry Deanna but I had to laugh when I read your post. You silly girl these aren’t the push ups you buy with ice cream in them they are plastic ones that come empty. I ordered mine from Untie The Ribbons. The link is above with my article. Good Luck! 🙂
Love the push pop containers!! They looks so yummy!!
THANK YOU so much for linking up to Strut Your Stuff Sunday!! We appreciate it!! Hope to see your fabulous ideas again!! Have a great day!
