I made some Mini Hamburger Cupcakes which I have seen a few times on the net and really wanted to try but also do a little bit different. I think these are an easy and fun idea, and great for a kid's party... especially a Spongebob or 50's Diner theme.

I made my Hamburger cupcakes different from the ones online that the other few food bloggers have done. All the other burger cakes make full-size chocolate cupcakes but I knew there was a better way that is cheaper, faster, no cutting and best of all the meat patty looks more realistic.
What I did differently
I used
normal size paper cake liners for the vanilla
cakes/buns and muffin size for choc/meat
patty
For the beef patty I poured in less than 1cm in
the bottom and cooked them fast while watching them closely so they didn't burn, you then don't have to cut or
waste cake by cooking a full cupcake.
I
also did the cheese out of fondant as I don't
think I would have been able to get it neat
enough with frosting and wanted the cheese to look more real
SUPPLIES TO MAKE MINI HAMBURGER CUPCAKES
So this is really easy, follow these steps and you too will have some awesome & cute cupcakes that people will go "WOW" over
1 - Cook vanilla cupcakes normally but don't overfill the paper cases
2 - Put 1cm of Choc mix in the bottom of the cupcake paper case, cook and watch closely as they can burn quickly
3 - Once cakes are cooked and cooled cut Vanilla cakes in half
4 - Line up your cakes like a production line at McDonald's (bottom picture above)
5 - Mix some red food colouring in some icing for the sauce and dribble on the bottom part of the bun
6 - Place patty on the bottom of the bun
7 - Add a few drops of yellow food colouring to your fondant and mix well
8 - Roll the fondant out with a rolling pin and cut with a knife the size needed for cheese. I cut mine about 2.5 inches squared
9 - Put another dab of icing on the patty and place cheese on top
11 - Mix some green food colouring in your frosting
12 - Put frosting in a piping bag and do a quick messy star design to make the lettuce
13 - Place the top part of the cake bun on
14 - Dab a small amount of syrup on top of the bun and sprinkle the sesame seeds
15 - Do a happy dance because you just created some cool easy cakes !!!
I also made some mini hamburger boxes for some of the cakes, you can be very creative and even print your own boxes to match your theme party
