(Not-So) Rotten To The Core Cupcakes

I’m pretty sure since the first commercial for Descendants aired on the Disney Channel, the lyrics to Rotten to the Core became an “earworm” in our home. My five year old runs around the house singing, “I’m rotten to the core,” repeatedly. He was so exited to watch Descendants when it finally aired on television we also purchased it at our local Walmart. I created these cute and (not-so) Rotten to the Core cupcakes to enjoy while we re-watched our DVD during family movie night. These cupcakes are only semi-homemade, and so easy to put together.

Do you remember the tale of Snow White? She ate a poison apple given to her by the Evil Queen disguised as an old woman, and it put her into a deep sleep. The logo for Descendants includes a poison apple. These (not-so) Rotten to the Core cupcakes aren’t poisonous, and they certainly don’t taste rotten. They’re reminiscent of Snow White’s poison apple, and they have a surprise inside.

You’ll need a few non-food items that are not included in the recipe, which inlcude cupcake liners and a leaf shaped cut and press. If you don’t want to deal with making your own leaves, I have seen pre-made fondant leaves in the cake decorating section at many Walmart and craft stores.

My favorite Disney movie is The Jungle Book, followed closely by Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid, which are tied for second. Then I’d have to say it’s the Lion King. I have all four movies memorized from beginning to end, it’s quite the sickness, really. 🙂 These cupcakes are GORGEOUS. You done good, kid! #client
I love these cupcakes and – shameless confession – I watched Descendants on demand the other day by myself!!!!!!
Thanks, and no shame! I’ve watched it too. I might also know the lyrics to Rotten to the Core and a few of the other songs. I heard a sequel is in the works.
