“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, Nothing is going to get better. It's not.”  ― Dr. Seuss, The Lorax

 

Dr. Seuss Lorax Cupcakes Ingredients

• 8 Prepared Cupcakes, unfrosted
• 1 Can Vanilla Frosting
• ¾ cup Shredded Coconut
• 1 Pkg. Runts Candy
• 4 Large Marshmallows
• 8 Edible Eyes
• Rainbow Nonpareil Sprinkles
• 4 White Sucker Sticks
• Food Coloring—yellow, pink, purple, orange, blue

How to make the Truffula Tree Cupcakes:

1. Frost four of the cupcakes with white frosting in a smooth, flat layer, and
sprinkle the rainbow sprinkles all over them.

2. Split the coconut evenly into 3 small bowls, and color each one a different color
with a few drops of coloring. I used pink, purple, and blue.

3. Put a marshmallow on the end of each stick, and spread a thin layer of frosting
over the marshmallows.

4. Roll each frosted marshmallow in a color of coconut until completely coated.
Then stick each marshmallow truffula tree into the middle of each sprinkled
cupcake.

For the Lorax Guy:

5. Color a little bit of frosting with the orange coloring and frost the other four
cupcakes.

6. Put on two eyes, an orange runt nose, and 2 banana runts above the eyes for
his eyebrows.

7. Color the rest of the frosting yellow, and put in a small plastic baggie, and snip a
tiny corner off to pipe thin lines.

8. Pipe a big thick mustache on each cupcake.

9. These are fun and easy treats to make for Dr. Seuss Day!
