I find writing on cupcakes incredibly adorable (same for Peppa Pig!)

One of my favorite things about cupcakes, aside from how they taste, is that they are a blank slate for both artwork of the visual and culinary variety, and to send a message of any kind, whether for a holiday, birthday, event, corporate cupcakes, whatever your fancy. And Sale, UK cupcake company Jellytots & Dollymixtures has some wonderful examples on their Facebook page, from love to thank you to teachers' names to insurance!
