Starbucks Coffee Frappe Cupcake

Frappe themed cupcakes perfect for any party!
I made these for a holiday party.

I used a spice flavored cake mix baked as cupcakes and inserted into espresso sized/sample sized coffee cups from Starbucks. Top with a swirl of cream cheese frosting (I used a frosting decorating tip inserted into a cut corner of a ziplock bag). Add the final touches by lightly dripping liquid caramel sauce and a dusting of chocolate powder (I used dutch process cocoa powder). I cut a straw from Starbucks into a small piece to tie the look together.

Perfect way to celebrate the cold winter months!
