Valentines Day Snack: “Love of God” Strawberry Heart Cupcakes
This easy Valentines Day snack takes advantage of God’s gift of strawberries ““ which are shaped like little hearts!
Ingredients
– Any flavor cake mix
– Red food coloring
– Ready-made whipped cream
– Strawberries
– Red sprinkles
– Muffin tin liners
Preparation
Use prepared cake mix according to directions to make enough cupcakes for the group.
Introduction
I have some delicious treats for you to decorate. We will use ready made whipped cream and strawberries to celebrate Valentine’s Day. And then we’ll sprinkle the cupcakes with red sprinkles to remind ourselves that all of our food comes from God. God sprinkles us with his love, as we should love each other during this special day.
Instructions
1. Frost cup cakes with ready-made whipped cream.
2. On each cupcake place a whole strawberry.
3. Top strawberries with a bit of whipped cream.
4. Sprinkle cupcakes with red sprinkles.
Conclusion
Romans 13:10 tells us: “Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” These cupcakes make a great symbol of the things we should try to be while fulfilling the law of love in our lives. We’re like the cake–pretty plain until sweeter things are added to us. God washes us clean. His grace is like the whip cream. He gives us a heart, like the strawberry. Then, we are sprinkled with his love so that we can love others! Now that we’re all sweet”¦let’s eat!
