Thanksgiving Cupcakes Decorations: Maple Leaves and Pumpkins

Ask a cupcake-lover what's the best way to say Happy Thanksgiving? And the answer is most likely to be "say it with cupcakes."

Take just one look at these Thanksgiving cupcakes by a(n American) baker, all of you cupcake-lovers will instantly fall in love with the creations.

I think the baker (who also photographed the cupcakes) has done a simply captivating job. Pumpkin cupcakes filled with pecan pie filling, topped with cranberry buttercream, and decorated with fondant maple leaves or fondant pumpkins dusted with powdered sugar, and sugar crystals and sugar beads.

The colors, the shapes, and the forms all perfectly represent and reflect Thanksgiving. And they made us feel blessed and happy.

These cupcakes are the desserts or snacks for pleasing a crowd throughout the Season. And if you are going to host a Thanksgiving lunch party with a casual and contemporary style, and you want a pumpkin pie alternative, you don't have to search no more. The inspirations are here.
