Divergent Movie Cupcakes

In case you didn't know, Divergent has opened in theaters across the nation. Divergent is a hunger games-esque series of books that are very popular with youth and adults alike. The Divergent Movie is finally here this weekend.

I am in the middle of the first book and it well it's a very easy read and also very entertaining. I won't tell you too much about it so as not to spoiled story or you. But basically is about a young heroine and her quest for identity,  truth and direction in a futuristic world.  In the story, youths must to choose a faction for life when they're 16 years old and live with other members of that faction. The factions are based on personal beliefs and opinions.

I seriously think that the movie is out it's going to be pretty huge. So I decided to make these faction cupcake toppers in celebration of the movies release.

I found some divergent stickers but you could also find the icons from the factions online.

I put the images on some black paper and used decorative scissors to trim the card stock. Then I attached the stickers to drinking straws with tape.

I added some sprinkles to each cupcake that corresponds with the faction pictured.

There are 5 major factions. The factions are based on beliefs and core values. The factions are:

• Amilty
• Candor
• Dauntless
• Abnegaton
• Erudite

I took the quiz at the end of the book (yes I peeked), and I am Erudite.

I am pretty sure all of the factions eat cupcakes.

Have you or your kids read any of the divergent books?
