What Are Cupcake Toppers?
Cupcake toppers are a simple piece of decor that’s usually attached to a toothpick and placed on the top of a cupcake. This can be a simple picture on a piece of paper, a bow, fondant made into various shapes and themes, etc. Printable cupcake toppers are often paper with an image on the front, attached to a toothpick, and placed on top of the cupcake. This is the type of topper you’ll find here in this post.
How Do You Put on Cupcake Toppers?
It’s truly a very simple process!
- Select the design you like the most (or all of them if you like).
- Follow the link and print out as many as you need, remember they’re all free.
- Cut out the topper after printing, following the lines to keep them straight and pretty.
- Dab a little bit of glue on the back of each topper and place a toothpick over that glue.
- Allow the glue to dry.
- Bake your cupcakes, allow them to cool, and then stick your cupcake topper in each one, and enjoy!
Tips for Making Free Thanksgiving Cupcake Toppers
- If you want the glue to dry quickly, use a small dab of hot glue. This is the quickest and easiest method I’ve found.
- If you want to keep the fall cupcake toppers long term, laminate them before adding the toothpicks or sticking them in cupcakes. This will protect the paper and make them easy to store. If using hot glue, it should peel right off the laminate once you’re finished using the toppers.
Are Cupcake Toppers Edible?
In short, it would depend on what cupcake topper you’re using. Printable cupcake toppers aren’t edible as they’re usually printed with ink onto paper and then added to the cupcake via a toothpick. However, if you make your own cupcake toppers or buy them from the store, you can make or buy edible versions. Fondant is often the best route to follow when making edible cupcake toppers.
