Movie Night Cupcakes

Friday's are "Movie Night" in our house.  It typically involves something fun for dinner that can be ate on the couch while we watch whatever Netflix we have that week.  It makes for a nice easy night while we wind down from the week.

Philip bought me "Hello Cupcake" for Christmas because every. single. time. we would go to the store I would stop and flip through this book.  It has the cutest and most clever cupcakes ever! Guess he wanted to speed up our shopping trips. :) I knew I had to make these cupcakes first as they were perfect for our Friday nights.  I have quite a few other cupcakes earmarked to make in the near future.  The more I look at this book I do have one complaint though.  A lot of the cupcakes use a regular size cupcake and a mini cupcake to put whatever the shape is together...or a cupcake and a donut hole.  Don't get me wrong, the cupcakes are adorable.  They are just a little impractical to me I guess.  If I sat down and ate a cupcake, a donut, frosting, and whatever candy is on it to decorate it I am quite sure I would die of sugar shock right then and there.

I don't have a recipe for these.  They are quite time consuming to put together so I just used a box cake mix (Oh the horror!).  I wish when I put them into the popcorn containers I would have stacked them better so it would have looked more like popcorn but what can ya do?!?!
