If you’re planning to host a get-together for the NFL Championships and/or Super Bowl, entertaining guru Jeanne Benedict has some absolutely adorable ideas for dessert!
Jeanne designed & whipped up 7 ultra-creative Super Bowl cupcakes for Celebrations.com, where she is a Lifestyle Party Expert, and she was generous enough to share them with us here!

“Instead of the old plastic football pick in a cupcake, try these awesome Super Bowl Cupcake designs for a winning dessert table while watching the Big Game on TV!
FOOTBALL CORSET Cupcakes
Laces out! Give a cupcake the winning edge by wrapping it in paper that looks and feels like a football and then lacing it up. (detailed instructions)
REF Cupcakes
For this sporty cupcake design, create a cupcake wrap out of black and white striped paper and top it with a whistle to pay tribute to the guys that keeps thing fair on the field. (detailed instructions)

PIZZA Cupcakes
Pizza always tops the list at Super Bowl parties. Serve up a pie that’s hot, fresh, and sweet with this Pizza Cupcake that has a Raspberry and Coconut White Chocolate topping. Score big by serving it up in a mini pizza box. (detailed instructions)

HAMBURGER Cupcakes
These chocolate cupcakes, dipped in orange chocolate to resemble a bun and garnished with fruit roll-up lettuce and tomatoes, will be a big hit with kids. (detailed instructions)

TEAM COLOR Cupcakes
Go gorgeous on the gridiron with cupcakes that have been double-dipped in white chocolate, dollopped with icing, and accented in team colors. (detailed instructions)

CHEERLEADER Cupcakes
Go Team! Root for your favorite football team at a Super Bowl party with these cheerleader-inspired cupcakes topped with fondant pom-poms and wrapped in grass paper. (detailed instructions)

TROPHY Cupcakes
Win big by topping chocolate cupcakes with trophies. These are also great for celebrating a local team’s championship sport season! (detailed instructions)

Thanks again to Jeanne for sharing these fun ideas & photos with us!
Which cupcake design do you like best? I love them all but am torn between the Football Corset and the Ref cupcakes right now… but leaning towards the Ref design because it also looks super easy, which is always a bonus!
P.S. For another take on the Hamburger Cupcakes, check out this version that uses red, yellow, and green frosting for the ketchup, mustard, and lettuce, along with plain white cupcakes for the “bun”, cut in half and garnished with sesame seeds!

Thanks so much for the cupcake love! I have to tell ya, most people are making the Ref Cupcake (easiest), most kids love the Hamburger (hardest), and most party people are fans of the Football Corset Cupcake! My favorite is a toss up between the Football and the Pizza.
