Irish Coffee Cupcake Painting

While I was researching for an idea to paint a cupcake for Saint Patrick's Day, I came across this green and brown polka dot ribbon that I purchased recently and that's where I found my inspiration for this "Irish Coffee Cupcake" painting.  It's so much fun to design for a holiday theme.  That's when I start getting bombarded with ideas.    Hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.  You can find it here on eBay.
Looks like a little leprechaun has slipped into this fluffy frosting piled high on top of a yummy Irish Coffee Cupcake! This beautiful dessert is proudly displayed on a black pedestal cupcake stand.
This cute dotted ribbon is wrapped around the edges and tied in a bow at the top.




In case you are interested in trying these out for real, you can find the recipe on Martha Stewart's sight here.
Enjoy!
