Birthday Cake Cupcakes

While I was on holidays overseas a few weeks ago it was my birthday and for the first time I didn't have cake on that day, but I did have other delicious foods to celebrate. So now that I'm back in my kitchen, I decided to make my own birthday cake.  You all know that I love cute things so I decided to make some birthday cake cupcakes. These Birthday Cake Cupcakes are so fun to make. Not only are they so cute but they take less then half the time to bake and decorate.  And an added bonus, you can also eat the whole cake, not just a slice because they are so little.
