The Truth About Cupcakes

You'll never believe what one incredible artist has done with cupcakes-I know I couldn't when she first described her creations.

The young artist, Leah Foster, has created several art pieces using only cupcakes (some pieces with up to 10,000 treats) and fishing wire!

What is even cooler about this artist is that she is now using cupcakes to help with the self-esteem of young girls.  I was lucky enough to partake in one of her cupcake activities.

Foster asked each person to first grab a cupcake.  Next, we wrote our biggest fear or anxiety on a piece of paper and stuffed it into the cupcake... and just like that, the fear was GONE! A wide variety of icing, sprinkles and food dye covered the stage, and it was up to us to decorate the cupcake in how we see ourselves. 

I decorated my cupcake with pink icing and rainbow sprinkles because I always want to have fun and look cute.  How would you ice your cupcake?
