Festive Chanukah Cupcakes with Donut Toppers
One of life’s really tough decisions… a cupcake or a donut. So here’s a fun solution: how about a donut-cupcake combo! Top a frosted cupcake with a mini-donut, add sprinkles, dreidel candies and chocolate gelt, and you’ve got a complete Chanukah treat.

What you’ll need
frosted cupcakes (your favorite flavor or color to match your party décor)
mini donuts (store bought or homemade)
How to assemble
Insert a toothpick into the mini-donut.
Then stick the other end of the toothpick into the cupcake so the donut sits on top.
Decorate with sprinkles, dreidel candies and chocolate gelt.
Display the creations on a cupcake wall or decorative stand for maximum wow-factor.
Presentation Tips
Use a cupcake wall or tiered stand.
Mix textures: glazed donuts + frosted cupcakes + metallic gelt = festive and fun.
Coordination: Match the sprinkles and candies with your table décor, flowers or other Chanukah elements.
For a “make-your-own” station: lay out plain frosted cupcakes, mini donuts, toothpicks, candy toppers and let guests create their own.
Cupcakes are displayed on an EstherO Cupcake Wall.
