Cupcake In A Teacup... (cute party idea)

A fun way to celebrate a birthday, bridal shower,
or 'a just because' is to have cupcakes in teacups!
Planning a shower, I stumbled across this idea online, only it was to actually bake the cupcake IN a teacup. Thinking that that might be a bit dangerous for the teacup I tried just setting cupcakes in smaller teacups and they fit perfectly!

The cupcakes in this post were devoured by my children. But, for the actual shower I think I will set out side plates for the cupcakes, or possibly include two teacups per setting, one for tea and the other for the cup cake. Suggestions are welcomed!

 Imagine a whole table of mis-matched teacups with cupcakes, won't it be lovely?

I have made cakes in tea cups but never in my vintage ones, only ones that say that they are dishwasher/microwave safe. I think your idea of putting pre-made ones in is the best solution if you use vintage cups.

Lovely post!

Best wishes,
Natasha.

This is a darling idea. I wouldn't bake them IN the cups, either.

I used cupcakes in vintage tea cups for a ladies lunch several years ago. The cupcakes were nestled in small round paper doilies - and everything tucked into the cups. I then stacked several tea cups inside a large hurricane globe for my centerpiece - and hung others from my chandelier. It was a beautiful table, but sadly the pics were lost when transferring to a new computer. One of my big regrets... Guess I'll have to have another party so I can get more pics! So many ideas... Thanks for a great post!
