Make a cupcake shaped like a zoo.
What you'll need
1 large cupcake
Blue icing
1 animal cracker
12 striped birthday-cake candles
M&M's or Smarties
How to make it
Frost the cupcake with the blue icing and position the animal cracker in the cupcake's center.
For the cage, place 8 candles (wick-end down) in a square around the cracker, then -- using a dab of frosting for cement -- carefully lay the other 4 candles across the top as a rail. Place the M&M's or Smarties upright between the candles.
