3. Take green sprinkles and shake a light coating over your cupcake tops.
4. Next, unwrap two Dum Dum Pops and stick in the middle of one cupcake. You can get creative with this and place each stemming from one area, or in two parts of the cupcake. Also, by staggering the Dum Dum Pop 'flowers' each will have a different height, to give an interesting look.
