Tailgate Ideas...

Nickii Posted 30 Oct 2011 , 1:53pm

Does anyone have any cute ideas for cupcakes based on Seafood Boil themed tailgate party?

Thanks everyone!

I guess nobody has any ideas...or maybe I am not a frequent user so no need to respond. I find it interesting the few times i need a little guidance I get several views and no responses.

Thanks for reminding me why I rarely post anything.

I don't think the fact that you're not a frequent member has anything to do with it. Perhaps people are like me and simple have no ideas for you unless you want to make chocolate shrimp to put on top of them or something like that.

If I recall correctly, one of the Hello Cupcake books, did a lobster using cupcakes. You could place them in a shape of a lobster or crab and then decorate the grouping to look like the critter.

LOL! I have to say you guys crack me up sometimes.

To the OP, you just have to be patient sometimes. Depending on the time you post, only a handful of folks may have had time to see your post and fewer than that have an idea immediately. I don't have an idea either, aside from lobsters and corn. Just thought I'd chime in.

I'm sure we'd all love to be helpful, but you still haven't explained what a "seafood boil themed tailgate party" is.

Gosh, we can't win - no-one responds and you complain, then people respond explaining why they haven't responded and you still complain.

My apologies as I didn't realize you are not from the United States. It is a New Orleans/creole dish. U take a big boiler pot and put shrimp, crawfish, potatoes, corn on the cob, etc and cook til done then poor it on a table and u eat. A tailgate party is where we get together prior to a sporting event and cook, grill, etc *** waiting for the game to start. Some tailgate parties have themed menues, i.e. chicken wings, chili cook-offs, seafood/crawfish boil, burger-offs, etc.

Hope that answers your questions, again...have a wonderful day!
