I had no idea where to begin when my eight year old said she wanted to be a chocolate cupcake this year for Halloween. I was thrilled when I stumbled onto this website! The costume was surprisingly easy and fun to make. It took me awhile trying to figure how to attach the bottom pieces … Read more
This is my baby girl’s first Halloween and I wanted her to have a really cute costume. I always sing the lil cuppycake song to her and we even call her Cuppycake sometimes so I thought a baby cupcake costume would be the perfect costume. First, I wrapped a regular round laundry basket I had … Read more
I started my Cupcake costume with the cupcake wrapper. I took thin tubes of PVC pipe and made two circles, one a little bigger than the other, and attached them together with straight tubes of pipe. I spray painted a folding window shade silver and wrapped it around the PVC frame. I tied fishing line around … Read more
We started with mommy’s lab coat from nursing school. The hardest part was taking off the school logo. We finally put the name tag over it. We then tied two small pillows around the waist (one in front and one in back). It was funny because the jacket then gaped between the buttons. The chef hat was … Read more
The cupcake costume was created by taking a big Rubbermaid bin, cutting out the bottom, and hot-gluing folded poster board all around it. The topping was created using cheap tulle from a fabric store. I bunched it up and duck taped it to the inside so it stayed on top. The sprinkles were just foam … Read more
This is a strawberry headdress / costume my hubby and I made for my 4-yr old preschooler, which was used during a school musical presentation in 2011. It is made up of cardboard, foam, white cloth, and some fabric paint. It’s the perfect cupcake headdress costume.

However, a cupcake seemed tricky and … Read more
The Cuppy Cake costume was easy to make. The bottom is flannel material, pink with small colored dots and I pleated the material to make it look like a cupcake paper. I also made a pair of pants to match for under the cupcake for her little legs. I made a blouse type top out … Read more
I made this cupcake costume after getting some ideas from this website. The best ones so far were for babies so I had to guestimate most measurements… I’m sorry I don’t remember the measurements of what I bought but it will all depend on your basket size and body shape. My best advice is try … Read more
Recently I started having a cupcake obsession. I make up excuses to bake them. So I figured this year, a cupcake costume was the only choice for a Halloween costume. If I had sat down in one sitting and made this costume it probably would have taken about 3-4 hours. But since I could only … Read more
I use my nieces and nephews for inspiration. This niece told me she wanted a Homemade Cupcake Halloween Costume for Halloween. I went to Walmart, got a cart, and cruised the aisles looking for anything that could become a cupcake. A round laundry basket served as the cake holder. My husband sawed the bottom off … Read more
I always think long and hard about what I’m going to be for Halloween. I try to out do myself every year and last year I think I did with my cupcake costume. I made the whole costume the day of the big celebration. A run to Jo Ann Fabric, Hobby Lobby, and Wal Mart … Read more
