Jennifer - thank you so much for watching and for your comment! My kids love helping with DIY crafts - so it is a win/win for all of us! Really appreciate you leaving us a comment 🤗
Hello Miss DRE, I JUST ENJOYED YOUR CUPCAKES FAKE BAKE VIDEO..I ESPECIALLY LOVED !THE WAY YOU INCLUDED YOUR CHILDREN TO PARTICIPATE AND HAVE FUN! HAPPY EASTER! AND KEEP YOUR WONDERFUL VIDEOS COMING! YOUR AWESOME AND GREAT! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BEAUTIFUL FAMILY 💕💕💜💜💜💜💙💙💙💚💚👍👍👍😃😃
You can get a lot of cupcakes...probably 3 or 4 dozen. One bit of advice...do the fillings all at once. I tried re-using the foam and due to the foam expanding in the straw it landed up spraying everywhere. Some got in my hair and I had to cut it out...I am just thankful it didn’t get in my eyes. I know now not to try to save it to use for later.
Adorable family .. I faux bake with gap and crack filler foam and sometimes I can’t get them smooth. They come out lumpy…How did you get them so smooth???
I absolutely love you and your adorable kids and the cupcakes turned out so cute! I have a Candyland Christmas Tree every year except I spent like $200 on ornaments from Hobby Lobby and Walmart lol. I wish I had seen your video sooner but will definitely add these to my collection. Thank you for sharing!!!💕
Ah this comment just made my day! Thank you for watching our video. I love that there are other Candyland lovers out there. Hobby lobby has the best ornaments…one of my favorites are the giant gummy bears they have started carrying (I just pull the Santa caps off them). Thanks for saying hello and I am so happy you are here 🥰
These are just adorable. My kids are 13 yr old boy and 11 yr old girl and Im so going to make these together with them this year!! I cant wait! Sooooo adorable and what great memories your making with your kids as a family!! THAT is the real reason for the season!!🌲 🍩🍭🍰🍬🍒🌲🎅🎁❤💕
Brenda - ah your comment made me so happy! Please check out my last video when you get a chance (affordable Christmas gifts) - I found an easier way to make these without the messy expansion foam (basically you can just use the top of a foam ball). You will have to keep me posted if you make these and thank you for watching! 💗
I have been making these for some years now, they are so much fun and I make them for other people for birthdays too. They look so real got to watch the little ones so they don't try to take a bite.
🤣 yes my 2 year old is so confused every time we make these. We have to watch him very close because he does want to taste them! Thank you for stopping by and watching our video. 🥰
Ah your comment made my day! 🥰 I have never had to seal the ornaments - I have had some fake cupcakes I made over 10 years ago and they still look the same. I just store these as well in Tupperware bins in my garage.
Oh my goodness I just love love your cupcakes ❤️May I ask a question can you spray when you started to make the cupcakes inside the house ..plz let me know again Tysm ❤️Beautiful children helping their Momma 🥰🥰❤️❤️
@@Hey_its_Dre Update: They turned out amazing! I brought them to work as Christmas gifts last year, and my coworkers were convinced they were treats for everyone. I had to tell them all not to eat them. 😅
Alice - thank you so much for watching our video and I hope you do make some - I have some original ones from 10 years ago that have made it this long! We keep adding more and more cupcake ornaments each year. I can’t help it...they are so fun to make!
Ah that is such a compliment! Thank you for checking out our videos! We are having fun making them (although more work than I ever expected) but also it has been lots of fun connecting with new friends!
HeyitsDre You gals are awesome! This TH-cam things is like 1st nature for the both of you, your channel will definitely grow! 😉😉😉 People love beautiful decor and fun people- which you gals have & more! I wish you nothing but growth & good vibes. This video was awesome and fun. I’m glad I subscribed 💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much for watching and subscribing! It really means a lot to us. 💗We love meeting new people on here and we have some fun Halloween and holiday videos coming up!
Ah thank you for the compliment! I also love crafting and my favorite thing is to make the holidays magical for my kids! Thank you for watching and subscribing - it means so much to me! 💗
Hi there - my kids help me with my projects all the time. They have touched it and we’ve had no problems. I just ensure they wash their hands afterwards and aren’t putting fingers near their mouths during projects. 😊
Yes I do - just to help the expansion foam hold its “cupcake” shape. I really wish I would have mentioned that part. It is just a piece of cardstock - I would have used a circle punch but all I had on hand is a hexagon punch. You could also just free hand cut a circle piece of card stock. 👍
Yes like a thin cardboard - you could even use a cereal or cracker box to make the shape - really anything that would give the base of the cupcake that circle look at the bottom. 😉
Hi , I love your cupcakes, I actually made some but weeks later they were all cracked , what can I do to prevent that please help my daughter is so sad.
Maggie - thank you for watching my video and I am so sorry they cracked. Let’s see if we can figure out why. Did the top fake spackling crack or the foam on the bottom? If it is the fake frosting portion - do you live in a humid area? I was reading that humidity can cause the spackle to expand and then when it gets cold it contracts again and that may be causing the cracking. I live in dry NM, so maybe that is why I didn’t have this issue. I actually still have some fake cupcakes I made from 10 years ago that are still in good shape. If it is the fake frosting that cracked - I would pull the cracked frosting off and try again but maybe find a spot where there is little moisture and they can dry properly. I hope this helps and let me know if it works. 😀
Good morning, thank you so much for answering , it was the sparkling that cracked , It’s actually not humid , but I did put them in a cabinet next to the stove so I’m thinking that might of been it 😩
It is the worst when the kids are upset too about their creations. I hope it works out if you store them some place different. I let mine dry in the garage. Also I use the brand Fast N Final lightweight spackle (it comes in a white tub with a red lid) that you can get from Walmart or Home Depot. Good luck and I hope they turn out. 🥰
Thank you for checking out our video! Giant nutcrackers - I will definitely be checking that out later today. I would absolutely love giant yard cupcakes! Those would be amazing and you could probably just use the foam to make the entire thing (since the spackling “frosting” would get super expensive).
The foam is called "gap & & crack foam" or "expanding foam". There are several different brands. It can be found at the store in the home repair section and the foam has a long straw that connects to it for spraying.
I would love to hear if you make these! If you are doing this project with kids - please watch my updated video below - you can go directly to time stamp 10:30 to see how to make a easy version of this cupcake minus the messy expansion foam! m.th-cam.com/video/WGieC19SWZs/w-d-xo.html
I loved this video and followed everything step by step but my cupcakes haven’t dried and it’s been over 24hrs 🥺 I don’t want all my hard beautiful work to go to waste.
Oh no! Question - do you live in a moist or humid environment? Someone else who lives in Florida messaged me with the same problem. Make sure your cupcakes are in a very dry area…maybe in a garage or even a cupboard. As a last ditch resort…I think I would even attempt using a blow dryer to dry them. Thank you for watching our video and sending positive energy…hoping your cupcakes turn out! 🥰
Thank you for watching and agreed...I made an updated video (Christmas gift ideas) that shows a foam ball cut and placed in the cupcake tin...it works just as great and no messy expansion foam to work with! 🙌🏼
Yes I agree about the music. This was one of our first videos and I didn’t know what I was doing with the sounds and editing. 😝 Thank you for checking out our video!

Awesome video, I like that children can participate!
Thank you for watching! My kids make all my crafting so much more fun and each time we pull out ornaments we made together it makes me so happy!
Loved the video. New to arts and crafts and will try the fake cupcakes, but wait, foam balls will expand the same as the foam spray?
Please, explain
Thanks for sharing can’t wait to try this! How many “cupcakes” can you get from 1-can of the foam? Aprox.
You can get a lot of cupcakes...probably 3 or 4 dozen. One bit of advice...do the fillings all at once. I tried re-using the foam and due to the foam expanding in the straw it landed up spraying everywhere. Some got in my hair and I had to cut it out...I am just thankful it didn’t get in my eyes.

This was so happy! Thanks for sharing
Ah thank you so much - best compliment ever! 🥰
Your children are adorable!! Love these fake cupcakes too!
Awe....thank you so much for watching! Your comment made my day 😊
Are they brittle or breakable? With the spackle? Thanks
Hi just wondering if the spray foam is water resistant?
Adorable family .. I faux bake with gap and crack filler foam and sometimes I can’t get them smooth. They come out lumpy…How did you get them so smooth???
Like is an understatement, I LOOOOOVED IT!👍

Putting a magnet in the bottom will allow it to stick to the fridge...
That is such a cute idea and I’ve never thought of that! Definitely going to try that! 🥰
So cute you all did a great job. Love them
“Do do do do dit”. ADORABLE!
Very cute! I plan to try

Ah your comment made my day! 🥰 I have never had to seal the ornaments - I have had some fake cupcakes I made over 10 years ago and they still look the same. I just store these as well in Tupperware bins in my garage.
I will definitely be trying this out for the holiday season. It was so much fun watching your little ones help you with this project. :)

Just adorable
Is sparkling okay to use for children (touching )?
Hi there - my kids help me with my projects all the time. They have touched it and we’ve had no problems. I just ensure they wash their hands afterwards and aren’t putting fingers near their mouths during projects. 😊
Do you have a hexagon piece of firm paper in the bottom of the cupcake liners?
Yes I do - just to help the expansion foam hold its “cupcake” shape. I really wish I would have mentioned that part. It is just a piece of cardstock - I would have used a circle punch but all I had on hand is a hexagon punch. You could also just free hand cut a circle piece of card stock. 👍
Thanks for your fast response. I appreciate it. Is it like thin cardboard then?
Yes like a thin cardboard - you could even use a cereal or cracker box to make the shape - really anything that would give the base of the cupcake that circle look at the bottom. 😉
what is the shelf life for fake foam cup ckes
Hi Martha - I have some I made still from 15 years ago! The colored spackling has faded a bit - but that is it!
Mam...can we use shaving foam instead...i have tried watching this....and its still.....im waiting💕
I wouldn’t use shaving foam because they will just deflate. You can use styrofoam balls, fabric foam or maybe even paper mache.
Hi , I love your cupcakes, I actually made some but weeks later they were all cracked , what can I do to prevent that please help my daughter is so sad.
Maggie - thank you for watching my video and I am so sorry they cracked. Let’s see if we can figure out why. Did the top fake spackling crack or the foam on the bottom?

Ah Jennifer - your comment really made my day! Thank you for saying hello and I am so glad you are here 🥰
Use polymer clay sprinkles they won't bleed snd they're super easy to make
Too Cute!!
Those came out awesome! I like to supersize everything (check out last year’s giant nutcrackers I did). Might have to make giant yard cupcakes 🧁 😳
Thank you for checking out our video! Giant nutcrackers - I will definitely be checking that out later today. I would absolutely love giant yard cupcakes! Those would be amazing and you could probably just use the foam to make the entire thing (since the spackling “frosting” would get super expensive).
Por favor alguém me diz traduz pra mim qual foi a massa que ela usou pra fazer a parte de cima o chantilly plessss
You have inspired me to make these..im working on lollipops
Ah this comment made me so happy! I hope they turn out great. I love how fun they are to make and my kids love making them too!
Why mine dry only outside no inside 😭???? I used the same like you 🥺
I love it...I will have to do that
im trying to make them and I cant get the fake frosting to go through my pipping bag. I
Oh no I am sorry. Is your frosting tip large enough? I usually use a XL (1m) tip.
What is the foam?
The foam is called "gap & & crack foam" or "expanding foam". There are several different brands. It can be found at the store in the home repair section and the foam has a long straw that connects to it for spraying.

This makes me so happy to hear. Thanks for watching our video and I have a video up of our Candyland tree we did this year! 😉
The music is so loud love the cupcakes
Genius!
Cute
Im definitely dewin dis
I loved this video and followed everything step by step but my cupcakes haven’t dried and it’s been over 24hrs 🥺 I don’t want all my hard beautiful work to go to waste.

@@Hey_its_Dre thanks for responding I will try the blow dryer If not I’ll have to go get some hardening resin spray or glue.
a unicel ball over the cupcake paper with glue can reduce costs and time, but it is a nice video
Thank you for watching and agreed...I made an updated video (Christmas gift ideas) that shows a foam ball cut and placed in the cupcake tin...it works just as great and no messy expansion foam to work with! 🙌🏼
Oh and I have learned how to make them from the lady at the pink tree you should visit her website
Florence I will definitely check it out! I love making these. They are so fun and everyone we give them to lights up when they get them!
😘
Hard to hear due to the music, but otherwise good tutorial.
Yes I agree about the music. This was one of our first videos and I didn’t know what I was doing with the sounds and editing. 😝 Thank you for checking out our video!
So basically there was absolutely no point in painting the foam wasting tan/khaki paint if you are just going to cover them with the spackling
No not really but my kids had fun painting with me - so that made it worth it.
In italiano no è 😢
