Edible Cupcake Invitations

Printed invitations are expensive! And what's sweeter than an invitation you can eat?  For Maggie's 2nd birthday we're doing a simple Cake and Ice Cream party. Most of her friends are neighbors so we delivered cupcakes to invite them to the party.

First we made vanilla cupcakes with vanilla icing.  And added little toppers with the party details.

Then Maggie and I delivered the cupcakes to our neighborhood friends.  Maggie had a hard time not tasting each one.

And when we were all done we enjoyed a little treat ourselves.

For the family members not close enough to get a cupcake we sent photos of the treats and Maggie in an email with party details.

This was a lot of fun and a very inexpensive way to create invitations.
