DIY Minion Twinkie CakesAre you planning on having a minion party?  If so, here is an easy edible craft that you can make at your party.  You will need to pick up the following ingredients from the store:

  • Twinkies
  • White Cake Frosting
  • Black Decorating Icing
  • Blue Decorating Icing
  • Decorating Tips for Icing
  • Black Twizzlers
  • M&Ms

Give each persona a plastic plate and a Twinkie.  Allow each person to be creative and to create a minion of their choice.  The youth group at our church had a minion party on Sunday afternoon and they made these cute DIY Minion Twinkie cakes and I wanted to share their cute idea on my blog.  Here are some great examples of their DIY Minion Twinkie Cakes:

    Adorable! I love all-things-Minion..I might have a shirt (or two) and I think Bob Stewart (though I think he is just Bob in the movie?) sits in my room, a gift from my youngest. These would be a fun family thing!

      Yes, this would be a great family activity for the whole family to enjoy. You could even watch the movie too!

    Wow, I love it! Twinkies ARE a perfect minion canvas, and my kids would have a blast doing this.

    Awesome! How sad (or happy, depending on how you look at it) is it that my youngest (9 years old) saw a plate of Twinkies on “Full House” yesterday and asked, “what are those?”

    Oh gosh, these are great! I wish my kids were younger. Maybe we’ll go for it anyway, lol! Aren’t you glad Twinkies was saved from going under?

      Yes, the other imitation Twinkies just aren’t the same and these are perfect for individual cakes. 🙂

    Oh my goodness! These are fantastic! I can't believe how well you did these and I never would have thought of using twinkies! Awesome!

      These were actually made by the youth group kids. My daughter was smart enough to capture a picture of hers before she ate it and I snagged the other photos before the kids left. 😉

    What a great idea… turning Twinkies into minions! My daughter is sure to love those.
