The classic Minnie Mouse theme party has never lost its appeal for girls of all ages. To match Minnie Mouse plates, cups, banners or other party decor, make cupcakes to coordinate with a Minnie Mouse theme. Whether you choose go with a simple color-matching idea or try a more artistic approach, Minnie Mouse cupcakes are sure to be a hit at the party. - To create a Minnie Mouse head, arrange 10 to 20 cupcakes in the shape of Minnie's head and ears. Using different frosting colors, frost each cupcake to make a colorblock image of Minnie Mouse's face, ears and bow. Use black frosting for the ears, nose and parts of the eyes, a cream color for the face and pink for the mouth and cheeks. A large pink ribbon stuck to the top of the cupcake head makes an excellent bow.
- The classic Minnie Mouse wears a red dress with white polka dots. This Minnie Mouse style gets recreated by decorating the cupcakes with red frosting and adding white frosting polka dots. A pink bow make out of small ribbon added to the top of each cupcake adds to the charm and Minnie Mouse feel.
- Party guests will enjoy making their own Minnie Mouse cupcakes at the party. Provide plain cupcakes, various candies and frosting colors for the kids to construct their own version of a Minnie Mouse cupcake. Include colors such as black, white, red and pink, in both icing and candy. M&M's, mini marshmallows, jellybeans and Oreo cookies for the ears are just a few ideas for candy that can be used to make a Minnie Mouse face on a cupcake.
- The simplest way to decorate cupcakes to match the Minnie Mouse party theme is to place small Minnie Mouse trinkets or toys on top of the cupcake. On top of cupcakes with brightly colored, theme-coordinated frosting, place plastic Minnie Mouse toys or party favors such as rings or hair clips. Personalized cupcake toppers with each child's name are also available, as are edible images of Minnie Mouse made specifically for cupcakes. These are available from online restailers as well as larger bakery supplies stores.
