Lego Cupcakes

These easy homemade lego candies are the perfect topper for cupcakes and add something fun to the table scape at a lego themed birthday party.

I made these lego cupcakes for my son's 7th birthday party.  They were super cute, but I made a yummy chocolate butter frosting that was not strong enough for the weight of the lego candies.  They were sliding off and we had to reposition a few of them when distributing the cupcakes to party guests.  I would suggest either refrigerating cupcakes frosted with a butter frosting prior to your party or using a frosting made with butter and shortening.  
candy wafers for melting chocolate
I bought some candy wafers for melting at Hobby Lobby.  You can find these in many colors at most craft stores.  I ordered Lego silicone candy molds from Amazon (affiliate link).

I followed the simple microwave melting instructions on the candy melts package and spooned the melted candy into the molds.  I then put them in the freezer until firm.  Once firm, they easily push right out of the candy molds.  Start making these a day or two before your party so that you have plenty of time to make multiple colors and the quantity that you need.  
homemade lego candies decorating table
I used extra lego candy pieces to decorate the party table.  

I had a hard time finding anything lego themed for the birthday party that wasn't super expensive and only available online.  I was able to find the silicone molds  on Amazon (affiliate link), but couldn't find much else.  I went with neutral themed bright colored tableware that I bought locally and on sale.  

If you have any awesome ideas or resources for a lego party please share in the comments.
