The Fellowship of the Ring: Hobbit Cupcakes

My siblings and I are doing a Lord of the Rings (Extended Editions) marathon, and I wanted to do themed food and dessert every night for it. In my search for idea, I found this reddit post that details every time they eat on screen. And I was very confused when I saw “cupcakes” listed…
