Cupcakes are the perfect party food — no cutting, no plates, no arguments about slice size. And cupcake toppers are the perfect cupcake upgrade: these printable rounds turn plain cupcakes into party cupcakes in about five minutes. Twelve designs per page with birthday messages and cute icons.
Cut them out, tape each one to a toothpick, and stick them in the cupcakes. That's the entire tutorial. They work on homemade cupcakes, bakery cupcakes, and the grocery-store cupcakes you bought on the way to the party (we've all been there, no judgment).
Print on cardstock so they don't flop into the frosting. And if you're doing a full cake too, the matching large cake toppers on this site use the same style — coordinated party decor with zero effort.
Match the toppers to your frosting colours for a bakery-window look — pink toppers on pink frosting is simple, but it photographs beautifully. Your party pictures will thank you.
Twelve small round toppers.
