What’s a graduation party without some fun graduation cake ideas?! These darling little grad cap cupcakes are so easy to make, let’s whip up a few!

We shot our new graduation collection (here’s a look at the storyboard) last Friday and I can’t wait to show you all the images (update post with all the images!), but for now I’m just going to share these little mini mortarboard cupcakes I made.

It doesn’t get any simpler than this.

The mortarboard is a Hershey’s Bliss dark chocolate and the tassel is a cello bag tie (my assistant Bridget was twisting one around her finger while we were prepping for the shoot and the rest is… in the picture)! Seriously, just take a dollop of white icing, a Hershey’s Bliss, and a curled tie. A dot of white icing, attach the tassel and you’re done!

As always, I hope you’re inspired to craft, bake, create and celebrate!
