Cupcakes In Mason Jars

I signed up to make dessert for the teacher appreciation lunch at the kiddos' school.

I love cupcakes and mason jars and have been wanting an excuse to combine the two.

I gathered all my supplies

and went to town making strawberry cream cupcakes...

while the kids destroyed the house.

I ate like half that bag of pretzels during this process.

And may have added more whipped cream than was necessary.

I pulled some fabulous strawberry paper out of my neglected scrapbooking stash for the lids.

There is just something awesome about eating a cupcake out of a mason jar.

AJ asked if I could make his entire lunch in a jar for school from now on.  

A boy after my own heart.

Not sure a school lunch in a mason jar is going to work out though.

Sorry kid.
