How to Put Together the Valentine’s Day Party in a Can

CHOOSE A CAN WITH A PULL TOP…PREFERABLY A CAN THAT HAD SOME KIND OF FRUIT IN IT. FLIP THE CAN OVER AND OPEN IT FROM THE BOTTOM (KEEP THE PULL TOP SIDE INTACT), RESERVE THE LID. WASH AND DRY.

IF A PIECE OF THE CAN IS LEFT BEHIND….SIMPLY USE PLIERS TO PRESS THE PIECE TO THE CAN.

REMEMBER YOU ARE FILLING THE CAN FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM. I LIKE TO START WITH COORDINATING SHREDDED PAPER.

FOR THE MINI CUPCAKE:

Valentine's Day Party in a Can
Start with a cake mix, add sprinkles to the batter. TIP: For added color, add a few more sprinkles to the top of the cupcake batter in each mini cupcake well. Also use store bought frosting. Place the baked, cooled cupcake in the container with a lid.
  • SUPPLIES
    • CAKE MIX—ingredients listed on the box
    • STORE BOUGHT FROSTING
    • SPRINKLES
    • SOUFFLE CUPS (from Walmart or Amazon)
    • FROSTING BAG—I used 6¾ inch tall bags I found on jewelry making craft isle at Walmart—you can write the instructions with a permanent marker
    • SPRINKLES BAG—Found on the same isle as the frosting bags*measures about 3½ inches tall

Spoon the frosting into the piping bag, snip the corner and fill to about 2 inches high into the 3 x 4-inch bag, add the Snip Corner and Pipe onto the Cupcake sticker to the bag.
