Frogs on a Pond Cupcakes Easy To Make Recipe

These cupcakes are a magical combination of chocolate-dipped Oreo Frog Cookies and classic yellow cupcakes topped with blue buttercream frosting. The result? A whimsical, pond-like dessert that’s just as fun to make as it is to eat!

✨ Why I Love It

These cupcakes are just too cute to eat... almost! I love how simple they are to make, but they look like something straight out of a storybook—or maybe even a Tiana’s Place dessert tray! The bright blue “pond” frosting, the little candy frogs, and that splash of green sugar make these treats an instant hit for birthday parties, Disney movie nights, or fun summer baking days. 

They’re easy enough for kids to help with, but charming enough for Disney adults like me to show off on Instagram. Plus, who doesn’t love a dessert that brings smiles and a little bit of frog prince magic? 

✨ Bonus: they pair perfectly with a The Princess and The Frog movie night with Disney+.

✨What You Will Need

For the Frog Cookies:

  • Oreo Cookies: We used Golden Oreos, but feel free to use any kind.

  • Twist Pretzels: For the frog’s legs.

  • Edible Eyes: Found in the baking section of most stores

  • Sprinkles: Black sugar sprinkles work great, but green is fun too!

  • Food Coloring: Green for the frog’s signature hue.

  • Coconut Oil: Helps smooth the melted chocolate.

  • White Chocolate: Almond bark works perfectly.

  • Pink or Red Frosting: Just enough to pipe on a cute little tongue.

For the Cupcakes:

  • Yellow Cake Mix: Or your favorite homemade recipe.

  • Blue Buttercream Frosting: To create the pond effect.

  • Sugar Baby Candy: For a fun edible pond reed.

✨ Directions

How To Make Oreo Frog Cookie Toppers

  1. Melt the white chocolate and coconut oil in the microwave in small increments, stirring between each session to avoid overcooking.

  2. Dip pretzels in the melted chocolate and place them on wax paper so that the bottom edges touch.

  3. Dunk an Oreo into the chocolate, coating it completely, then lay it directly over the pretzels to form the frog’s body.

  4. While the chocolate is still wet, add the candy eyes so they stick, then sprinkle a bit of black sugar coating for added texture.

  5. Pipe a small red or pink tongue onto each frog for a fun finishing touch.

  6. Place the tray in the fridge to allow the chocolate to harden.
