Look how cute your muffins or cupcakes will look with these Day of the Dead sugar skulls cupcake toppers

The Day of the Dead is one of my favorite celebrations. I love it not only because it is so colorful, but also because it makes me think about my family, and traditions I grew up with in Mexico. So every year I feel excited about creating something inspired by the Day of the Dead to decorate my home and make the ofrenda for my grandpa, grandma, uncles, aunts and friends.

Sugar skulls are probably one of my favorite elements from the Day of the Dead's celebration. These calaveritas are sometimes difficult to find in the United States. For that reason we often made our own version of sugar skull using white chocolate in the past years. You can find the tutorials here: how to make chocolate skulls for Day of the Dead and here: The easiest way to decorate chocolate skulls for the Day of the Dead in case you would like to make some, which I totally recommend because making chocolate sugar skulls is so much fun, especially for the kids!

If you are not into buying or making sugar skulls, what about printing them?

I painted with watercolors these calaveritas the other day, I shared them on Instagram and asked about what should I make with them and one of the first suggestions was that they would look super cute as cupcake toppers. So I put together a free printable that you can download, print and use to decorate cupcakes, muffins, gifts and other things that come to mind this Halloween and Day of the Dead.

Note: A few moths ago the site crashed and we lost all the PDF printables that we uploaded in the site. You can download the image below and use it for your projects. I’m sorry if it is not a great quality or if you can’t find what you are looking for.

Download this page and use the sugar skulls to decorate muffins, donuts or cupcakes during the Day of the Dead celebrations.
