Vegetable cupcakes

I've been dying to try these cupcakes for ages, and the last day of school seemed an appropriate place for such a summery theme.

The base is chocolate frosting coated in crushed oreo cookie "earth"; the vegetables are simply starburst candies molded into shapes, with green frosting dipped cornflake "leaves" and green M&M "peas." It was all surprisingly quick and easy to pull together, and the kids (36 of them in both my children's classes) loved them.
