My Top Five Picks for a Delightful Baby Shower: Vegan Cupcakes

 
Pick Three: Winter Wonderland Theme
 
Not only can vegans have their cake and eat it too, but they can have a fantastic themed baby shower as well. A Winter Wonderland decorated in icy blues and chilly whites, all topped with sparkle—what could be prettier? Top the tables with white and blue tablecloths, buy sparkly snowflake decorations (easy to find at dollar stores in the Christmas department), get an ice sculpture of a baby, have white chairs, and play snowy games (teams wrap one member in toilet paper and top her with hats and scarves and mom-to-be votes for the best snow man. If baby is known to be a girl, buy only pink accessories for the “snow men.”) Put your gift to the mom-to-be in a white basket and wrap it with snowflake cellophane; tie a blue bow with a snowflake hanging from it. For party favors, why not fill sparkly white bags with chapstick, marshmallows (snow man poop), and pretty scarves? Be sure to have a cake table decorated with sparkles and snow flakes because the piece-de-resistance will be the cupcakes.
 
Etsy store thecupcakemint is dedicated to making yummy cupcakes using only vegan ingredients. To go with the Winter Wonderland theme, the Let It Snow Double Mint Winter Snowflake Fondant Vegan Cupcakes are the perfect finishing touch to a winter themed vegan party. Though 2 cupcakes are $8.50, you could fill in the blanks with plain cupcakes (if there are 16 people coming, buy 8 snowflake cupcakes for the party and use plain cupcakes for the other 8, for example.) Simply gorgeous and made to wow with mint cake and homemade mint fondant, they’ll complete the party.
