Showstopper #1: Shark Week Cupcakes

Turn even store-bought cupcakes into your “Shark Week” showstopper! Cut out a small shark fin from a piece of grey foam (or use fondant if you’re fancy!) and stick it upright into all of your cupcakes. Voila – you now have a Shark Week cupcake (just don’t eat the foam…). Thanks, Amanda – cute idea!

For many of us, Shark Week is a wonderfully, fascinating show teaching us about the nature of sharks and how to best live among them. But, for others…it’s just another reason to have a party! ENJOY!
