I made these cupcakes for Father's Day this year. They were adorable, but too labor intensive. I will probably never make them again. I got the idea from a blog and it really did not look like it would have been that much work. I made 24 cupcakes from a standard box of cake mix. I used carrot cake and topped with a blue tie dyed cream cheese frosting. I also used a frosting tip to pipe it on. Now the labor intensive portion....I cut wood skewers into 2 pieces and threaded a needle with thin white thread. I poked the threaded needle through a gummy fish (from a shark fruit snack pack). Then, I tied the threaded fish onto the wooded skewer and put it on the cupcake. They looked really cute, but just too much work for one day:) A fun idea though if you have someone who likes to fish in the family.
