Since hers is an all-girls school, I settled on princess cupcakes with daisy and pearl sprinkles. Only question was how to pack them individually so she could gift them to her classmates and teachers.
Going online, I came upon a great idea to place the cupcakes into a clear plastic cup and then bagging them into treat bags with a twist/ribbon tie. See http://www.cookiemadness.net/2011/04/packaging-cupcakes/. I bought pretty treat bags and twist ties easily. But for the life of me, I couldn't find the right size cups! The ones in Cold Storage were too big. And the ones in Phoon Huat were too small. I almost gave up as I dwelled on mental images of my precious cupcakes being smashed up in transit.
As I despaired over what should have been a very easy part of the cupcake process, I decided to make another trip to Phoon Huat, this time to the Clementi store. And somehow I was guided to this rack where lo and behold right at the top shelf was the most perfect cupcake packaging ever ;--)
The best part is: the delighted squeals of my girls when they saw the final cupcake gifts!
