Chocolate Gnome Cupcakes


You don’t need to be a gardener to appreciate the cuteness of garden gnomes, especially on a cupcake! Lori made these recently and I just love how the garden gnomes are nestled into their own little outdoor garden scene. If you’re looking for an easy and cute way to decorate cupcakes, I highly recommend loading them with sprinkles and toppers like Lori did here. Its such a fool proof way of cupcake decorating that hides any imperfections and leaves you with impressive cupcakes.
