The Story:
For men over 40, a mustache is fine. But for all the boys who attend my college and have a mustache, it means you don’t want a date. It just looks creepy and no one take you seriously, sorry boys!
So for father’s day, bake up some cupcakes (your papa’s favorite) and stick a mustache on it to give him a good laugh. I used chocolate molds, but you can use fondant, melted chocolate piped onto wax paper and then cooled, or even construction paper! Kids would have a ton of fun cutting out their own mustaches. Then stick them on to serve!
