Cupcakes That Look Like REAL Food
I'm not exactly sure why you would want to make cupcakes look like mashed potatoes and gravy or spaghetti and meatballs. I mean, fruits and vegetables should be made to look like cupcakes! Not the other way around! Anyway, feel free to post a picture of cupcakes masquerading as brussel sprouts if you can find it!
Hamburgers
I love how they use brownie mix to make the patty— GENIUS!!
A step-by-step look into the hamburger cupcake making process.
Cheeseburgers
Love the Styrofoam box— so authentic!
Help yourself to some more hamburger why dontcha?
Mashed Potatoes with Gravy
I wouldn’t touch mashed potatoes and gravy with a 10 foot pole, but these I would eat!
Cupcakes that look like geeks? Not exactly, but wouldn’t it be funny if someone stuck Bill Gates’ head on a cupcake? Until that happens here are some cupcake fashioned to look like things geeks love— like iPhone apps.
Pizza
Mmmm…fake olives made out of chocolate…
Pop Corn
These are RIDICULOUSLY cute. If I was an amazing hostess a la Martha Stewart I’d make these for an Oscar party.
Like cupcakes, but bigger!
Snow Cones
A perfect sidekick of the pop corn cupcakes!
Thanksiving Dinner
Thanksgiving dinner on a cupcake. Now why didn’t I think of that?
Sticky Rice With Mangoes
Totally random, I know. But there’s delicious coconut on them and I feel like these really do taste like sticky rice with mango, but in cupcake form!

Sushi
Fish is the LAST thing I want to think about while I’m eating a cupcake, but these are still pretty cool.
Spaghetti and Meatballs
I’m hoping that cheese is there for the photo shoot and not for consumption on top of the cupcakes.
Ice Cream Cones
Can’t decide whether you want cupcakes or ice cream? Have a cupcake that looks like an ice cream cone! Or you could just have both…
TV Dinner
I love how a normal-looking cupcake is including in here as dessert.
Courtesy of none other than Martha Stewart.
Brains
In some parts of the world brains are considered to be a delicacy— didn’t you see “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom”?
Apples
The stalk is a little piece of pretzel!! LOVE it.
Corn on the Cob
I’m a little obsessed with these. I love how they made the corn two-toned!
Martha Stewart strikes yet again.
Bacon and Egg Cupcakes
I dunno. It looks more like t-bone steaks and mashed potatoes with butter to me, but they’re calling them bacon and egg cupcakes. I think I could do better!
