CUPCAKE WREATH

• • • • •

A wreath may seem like a logical presentation for holiday cupcakes, but I had a
hard time figuring out just how the cupcakes should be stacked until I enlisted
the math brain of my daughter Kathleen. This wreath of twenty-four cupcakes
with green frosting and sugar sprinkles, decorated with red candies to resemble
holly berries, is great for the winter holidays (and, in different colors, it’s just as
pretty any time of the year). Add fresh pine sprigs and pinecones and you’ll have
a large and glorious wreath.
