Cupcake Monday! The Disco Edition
I was looking for a change from the usual lovely, too pretty to eat cupcakes I usually feature (don't worry, I won't abandon my first love!). So to indulge in a little of the cooler persuasion I bring you disco ball cupcakes from Elise of Confetti Cakes. She was invited to be a part of Paula Deen's TV show Paula's Party back in 2008 and you can guess the theme of this particular fête. I think these cupcakes could double as a futuristic igloo or an homage to the armadillo. Either way, they're unique and I bet super tasty.
Want to see for yourself? You can find the recipe here.
Other disco treats included these adorable platform shoe cookies, and it looks like she even captured that distinct (and thankfully for all other intents and purposes, extinct) shade of 70s refrigerator green!
what? those are awesome!!

Get down and get funky. Where the heck did you find disco ball cupcakes? Love these! If only they would rotate and play Donna Summer on repeat.

Haha- I love the disco cakes. Except I am not sure I would want to eat the topping. It looks unsafe ;D

How about giving the directions for the cupcakes. If you follow the link, it tells you how to make cupcakes. There is nothing about decorating them.
If you follow the recipe exactly, you get plain, unfrosted cupcakes.

Sorry, Brenda, I assume it's a trade secret - take it up with her!
