My dad is a (recreational) golfer. When we were kids, he used to play every weekend, but he plays less often now. Regardless, when it came time to making treats for Father's Day, I thought a golf theme would be great! I have a two golf-themed desserts for Father's Day, but the others will be featured in another blog post shortly.
Since I am not going to be home for Father's Day, I made these cupcakes a few days early and delivered them to my parents when I went home on Friday night to take my dad to an early Father's Day dinner. Since the other treat involved cake pops (which I made from cake mix), the cupcakes and icing are not from scratch - but these would be even better if made with homemade cupcakes and icing!

Check out these adorable labels I made - golfcarts! |
The greens and sand and water traps are made out of white fondant that I dyed with gel food coloring. I cut the "holes" in the greens with a straw. And the golf balls are large white sprinkles. The golf club and the flaps on the flags are made from chocolate putty (which I bought months ago and was about to reach it's expiration date).
I think (despite the cake mix and store-bought icing) these came out pretty cute!
