Father's Day Golf Cupcakes For Kids

Ingredients
  • Boxed cupcake mix
  • Canned vanilla frosting
  • ½ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs
  • 10-12 white pearl sprinkles
Tools
  • 10-12 toothpicks
  • Red marker
  • 1 sheet of white paper
  • Tape
  • Grass piping tip
  • Piping bag
  • Offset spatula or butterknife
  Directions
  1. Bake your Dad’s favorite cupcake flavor according to the directions on the box. Whether it be chocolate, vanilla, strawberry, lemon, whatever your Dad loves the most!
  2. Once the cupcakes have finished baking, be sure to let them cool completely before decorating that way the buttercream won’t melt or soften too much.
  3. Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, spread some vanilla buttercream on top of the cupcake, only covering a small amount of the cupcake. This will be the sand pit!
  4. Dunk the cupcake in graham cracker crumbs to stick to the buttercream.
  5. Dye the remaining buttercream, once all of the sandpits have been made, green. This is going to be the grass.
  6. Place the green buttercream into a piping bag fit with a grass piping tip. Pipe grass all over the rest of the cupcake that isn’t covered with the graham cracker sand pit.
  7. To make the little toothpick flags, cut out little triangles from the white paper then color them red. Tape the triangles to the top of the toothpicks.
  8. Stick the toothpick flags on top of the cupcakes. Repeat these steps for each cupcake.
  9. Place a pearl sprinkle on top of each cupcake, they will stick best on top of the grass buttercream.
  10. Tell your Dad how much you appreciate him and enjoy these delicious cupcakes together!

Frequently asked questions

What comes in a Baketivity baking kit?

Each Baketivity baking kit includes pre-measured dry ingredients, easy step-by-step instructions, and fun educational activities designed for kids. Our recipes are created to help children learn real kitchen skills while baking something delicious with their family.

Do I need to buy additional ingredients?

You may only need to add a few fresh ingredients like eggs, butter, or milk, depending on the recipe. Most of the dry ingredients come pre-measured in the kit, making baking simple, convenient, and mess-free for kids.

What equipment do I need to use the baking kits?

Most families already have everything they need at home. Typically you'll need mixing bowls, a whisk, fork or spoon, measuring cups, and a lined baking pan. Some recipes may also require a microwave-safe bowl or oven.

What age are Baketivity baking kits best for?

Baketivity baking kits are designed for kids ages 4–16. Younger children may need a little help from a parent, while older kids can follow the instructions more independently and build confidence in the kitchen.

Do your baking kits contain nuts?

Nuts are not directly included in the recipes or ingredient lists. However, some components may be produced in facilities that also process nuts, sesame seeds, soy, and gluten, so trace amounts may be present.

Are Baketivity baking kits kosher?

Yes! All ingredients included in Baketivity baking kits are OU-certified kosher, and our facility is FDA-approved, so families can bake and enjoy their treats with confidence.

My ingredients feel hard or clumpy. Is that normal?

Yes! Our ingredients are vacuum-packed to keep them fresh, which can sometimes make them feel firm or clumpy. Simply open the bag and give it a shake, and the ingredients will loosen up and be ready to use.
