Handy Manny Cupcake Ideas

Handy Manny is a cartoon about a handyman named Manny Garcia and his adventures with his talking tools. The show is quite popular with younger viewers, which may result in your needing to plan a Handy Manny birthday party for one of your young children. If you want to make Handy Manny cupcakes, there are a few ways to go about the baking process. Add this to my Recipe Box.

Cupcake Rings

Cupcake rings are small plastic toy rings that can be placed on top of cupcakes. After a child is done eating the cupcake, the ring can be rinsed off and worn for the rest of the day or week. One simple method for making Handy Manny cupcakes is to bake a batch of regular cupcakes and place one Handy Manny ring on top of each cupcake. You should be able to find the decorations at a local party supply store.

Mosaic Face

A trickier method for creating Handy Manny cupcakes is to make a batch of cupcakes and decorate them all to create one large image. To do this, find a large image of Handy Manny or one of the other main characters of the show. Bake a batch of cupcakes, then place them on a pan. Use decorative icing to make a large picture of the character, using each cupcake as a small part of the image.

Tools

Handy Manny's tools are an important part of the show. Building on the cupcake mosaic idea, create a set of cupcakes for each of Handy Manny's tools. This is best for large parties or classrooms for which several dozen cupcakes are needed. Set the cupcakes out in the shape of Handy Manny's tools and decorate each set to match the character from the show.

Fondant Tools

If you want a more advanced baking project and are comfortable using fondant, there is yet another way to make a set of interesting Handy Manny cupcakes. Bake a regular set of cupcakes and frost them with colors that match the Handy Manny show. Next, use fondant to craft small copies of each of Handy Manny's tools. Decorate each cupcake with one fondant tool for a truly unique cupcake experience.
