Edible Sand for Cupcake Decorating
My daughter wanted a beach themed birthday party for her 8th birthday. We live in New England and her birthday is in February so of course I had to find a way to bring the beach to her! I made my gluten-free, dairy free, egg free Spice Cupcakes with Cinnamon Icing and added edible sand and a cute paper party umbrella to each cupcake, they were adorable and she loved them!
Follow my recipe for the Spice Cupcakes with Cinnamon Icing and add the sand on top of the icing just after adding the icing while it is still tacky.
To make the sand I simply put about 1 cup of Enjoy Life Perky’s Crunchy Flax cereal in a resealable bag and crushed it with a rolling-pin until it had the look of sand. Add about 1/4 tsp. of cinnamon for flavor. Sprinkle a spoonful of sand on each cupcake and add a party umbrella.
That’s My Plate of View!
