Dr. Seuss’s birthday is coming up on March 2nd. I always see so many fun and wacky ideas on how people celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday. I just love all the great ideas! But I have a confession, I have never really done anything with my family to celebrate Dr. Seuss’s birthday. You should know how much we love yummy treats, so this year I decided to start small with a simple Dr Seuss cupcake idea I had using the colors of Dr. Seuss’s Thing One and Thing Two
Simple Dr Seuss Cupcake
Thing One and Thing Two are fun characters in red clothes with a shock of blue hair and I thought that would be fun to transform that into a cupcake.
To capture this idea I baked my cupcakes in regular liners and then once cooled placed them into the red cupcake liners. I didn’t want to bake them in the red liners because I think the liner color is not as vibrant when the cupcake is baked in them.
Then cover with a swirl of white frosting and add a bunch of blue sprinkles. I actually used different frosting for these cupcakes – some had a marshmallow frosting and some had an almond flavored frosting – a nice little surprise!
If you liked mySimple Dr Seuss cupcake then please go ahead and pin the idea to save for later! I also have a bunch of other ideas from my friends if you are looking for more Dr. Seuss ideas!

Simple and cute! Dr Seuss shares a birthday with my hubby, so we tend to skip Dr Seuss in favor of celebrating Dad 😉 Sometimes I try and throw in a little extra Seuss treat though.

This is so cool! I’d never thought of placing a pre-made cupcake in a liner to keep the liner color 🙂
