In terms of taste, these cupcakes are tasty. However, the marshmallows are VERY sticky and sugary and don't come off the cupcake that well. Aside from that, the cupcakes were very attractive. Moreover, some people said they looked like pigs or even the sun! haha! Overall, these cupcakes are very fun and easy to make.
