Cupcakes are always a crowd-pleaser, but adding a personalized topper can take your Father’s Day treat from “yum” to “WOW!” Whether you’re baking up a batch of cupcakes for brunch, dessert, or packaging them in jars for gifting, Father’s Day cupcake toppers are a fun and easy way to add a heartfelt touch.
And the best part? You can DIY these with just a few materials you probably already have at home.
What You’ll Need:
- Printable Father’s Day Cupcake Toppers – File for Cricut | File for Printing on 8.5in x 11in paper
- White cardstock or thick paper
- Cricut or Scissors
- Toothpicks, cocktail sticks, or lollipop sticks
- Glue stick or tape
How to Make Cupcake Toppers
1. Download the Father’s Day Printable
I’ve created three designs to add to your cupcakes. You can download the .png file for the Cricut or download the 8.5×11 in. paper printable.
2. Print on Cardstock
Use white or kraft cardstock for best results.
3. Cut Them Out
Use scissors or your Cricut machine to cut these printables out.
Cricut Note: I wanted to add a white border around the cupcake toppers. In order to achieve that look, I added the .png file to the canvas. I clicked the image and went to the offset drop down and selected the size I wanted outline the image. Once the offset was added, I selected the color white. I clicked on both the image and the offset and flattened the image. I found if you do not flatting the image, it cuts out the offset and then the image separately.
4. Attach to Sticks
Glue or tape each topper to a toothpick or lollipop stick.
5. Decorate Your Cupcakes!
Once your cupcakes are frosted and ready, gently insert the topper into the center of each one.
Father’s Day cupcake toppers are a quick, easy, and thoughtful way to personalize your sweet treats. Whether you go for something funny, heartfelt, or themed, these little details show just how much love you put into celebrating Dad.
