These are just basic vanilla cupcakes. I decided to fill them with a marshmallowy filling. I found the recipe for the filling somewhere. It's just regular frosting and marshmallow creme. Yuck. Don't like canned frosting. I suppose I could have made my own but was not energized enough to do it.
I filled the cupcakes at home with a piping back. I didn't have the right kind of tip but it still worked.
Because the filling was marshmallow, it oozed out a little so we covered the top with more cheap, white frosting and rolled the edges in red sanding sugar.

We topped the cupcakes with super fun umbrellas in patriotic designs. There were also some flag and stars candies that we bought and put on top. Not the most creative or clean cut design but still very colorful and fun.
