Dino-mite Cupcake-Cake Tutorial

It's not a cupcake, and it's not a cake... it's a cupcake-cake! Cupcake-cakes are ideal because they give you the look of a cake, but they make serving so much easier. You don't need to worry about making a mess from cutting into the cake, or uneven slices. I always have someone saying, "that piece is way too big" and I get a lot of uneaten pieces of cake left over. With a cupcake cake each guest can just "pull away" their own cupcake. I bet making a pumpkin cupcake cake for Halloween would be fairly easy because of the simple roundish shape. Click here for a tutorial on creating this cute Dinosaur cupcake cake. If you don't want to make the red chocolate "spikes" as shown in the tutorial, cut triangles from fruit roll-ups instead. Once you get the hang of making a cupcake-cake, you may find yourself making them more often than regular cakes.
