Frost your cupcakes with vanilla frosting. One of the Dallas Cowboys' colors is white, so the vanilla frosting will be in keeping with the cupcakes' theme.

Purchase some pre-made, pre-colored blue fondant. Sprinkle a counter top and a rolling pin with cornstarch and roll the fondant out to about a 1/4-inch to 1/8-inch thickness.

Press a star-shaped cookie cutter into the rolled out fondant. Make sure that your cookie cutter is roughly the size of the top of the cupcakes.

Peel away the fondant surrounding the star shape and lift the star using the spatula. Be careful when you handle the star because you do not want to damage the edges.

Place the star on top of the cupcake. Repeat until all of your cupcakes are decorated.

Tips & Warnings
If you'd like to add some additional flair, frost half of the cupcakes with a blue frosting and use white fondant to cut out stars from. When displaying the cupcakes, alternate a blue cupcake featuring a white star with a white cupcake featuring a blue star and so on.
