Celebrating Holy Days with praise and worship is a given…and bringing that celebration home (and not just leaving it in the church parking lot as you leave after mass) is just as important as attending the Holy Day celebration.
A great way to bring that celebration home for Pentecost is to bring the fire of the Holy Spirit right into your kitchen with some flaming cupcakes. While your son may be disappointed that there are no pyrotechnics in these flames, I promise he’ll love the taste of the end result.
These make a great activity to do together as a family, and while the cupcakes bake you can read Acts 2:1-47 and meditate/share with your family on the importance of this day. Don’t forget the impact your Bible version may have on this passage!
As Pentecost is often called the birthday of the Church, baking some cupcakes – or making one large cake – become even more relevant. I first fell in love with this idea when I saw Kelly’s white flame cupcakes, and modified the design a bit to add more color into the marshmallows and icing. I’m so happy with the way they turned out! Noreen also came up with a great candy melt to make her flames – worth checking out.
