Eight Cupcakes in Ruffled Liners, Each Topped Differently

Eight cupcakes are arranged in rows on one page, each in a ruffled paper liner with thin vertical lines. The top row has a swirl of frosting with a curly drizzle, a cupcake topped with a citrus slice on a wide frosting swirl, and one with small piped rosettes around the edge. In the middle row, one cupcake has a criss-cross chocolate drizzle over a round top, and another has a pointed fig-like candy on top with a dark ribbon wrapped around the liner. The bottom row shows a swirled cupcake with sprinkles, one with a cherry and long stem, and one with a strawberry and a bow tied around the liner. Try coloring each liner in a different pattern, then give the cherry and strawberry bright reds so the toppings stand out. The free printable also works well for a bakery-themed lesson, since children can compare how each cupcake is decorated.
