Tropical Flowers

A sophisticated Hawaiian luau cupcake decoration is a tropical flower. Choose silk flowers that resemble the tropical flowers you might see in Hawaii. Snip the stems close to the flower head and gently press the flower head into a frosted cupcake. Inquire at your local florist for edible flower varieties to use instead of silk.
Parasols
-
Frost cupcakes in light blue frosting to give them an island feel. Stick colorful parasols into the cupcakes. Use the paper parasols that often accompany tropical beverages. You can purchase these tiny parasols at restaurant supply and craft stores. Vary the color of the frosting for a more colorful table. Use candy flowers to further embellish the cupcakes.

Lilo and her little alien buddy, the lovable Stitch, live in Hawaii and make for an appropriate cupcake theme for a Hawaiian luau party for a child. Find Lilo and Stitch cupcake toppers or use stickers featuring the pair. Stick the stickers on white paper, cut out and mount on tooth picks. Alternately, decorate some cupcakes to look like Lilo's face and other cupcakes to look like Stitch.
Sponge Bob Squarepants

Who lives in a pineapple under the sea? It's Sponge Bob Squarepants, of course. This lovable yellow sponge makes a fun character to top a Hawaiian luau cupcake. Remove cupcakes from the pan and cut the edges off until the cupcakes are square shaped. Frost the cupcakes in yellow and add white icing eyes, outlined in black. Draw a black icing mouth to finish the face.
