Cupcakes or Pie???

 
Cupcakes or Pie???
 
 
M&Ms are such a versatile candy....they can even represent fruit!
We sorted a large bag of M&Ms into colors.
 
 
Next we tinted 1 cup of basic buttercream frosting with 1 tsp. of cocoa to take on a light brown color, and frosted the cupcakes. 
Then we chose our "fruit", aka M&M color and covered the frosted cupcake. 
 
 
Next we filled a ziploc bag with the cocoa tinted frosting, and snipped the corner to create a pasty bag.  Then we created a grid or lattice across the "fruit"........



These three 8 year olds made some amazing, and delicious, fruit pie cupcakes! 
 What will they think of next!
