Dinosaur Cupcakes

The gingerbread cookie that adorns each cupcake is cut out with a large dinosaur-shaped cutter, then pressed onto a lollipop stick before it’s baked. (See Sources, page 342, for where to find the necessary tools.) You could also use any other animal or insect cookie cutters they come in all shapes and sizes), and omit the candy eggs.
