Create a bite of joy with cupcakes
Create a bite of joy with cupcakes.
With cupcakes you are allowed to get messy, and lick your fingers to get every
last sweet morsel - it's the cake that doesn't require you to wash dishes.
Everyone
is making cupcakes these day. How can you make your cupcakes a little fancier?
With a flick of a swirl.
To make swirl-topped cupcakes you
will need:
Decorating tip #19
Disposable or
flex pastry bags
white buttercreme
icing
Color Mist
spray
sprinkles,
glitter,
nonpareils,
dragees or other favorite topping
After cupcakes have cooled, place tip
#19 in your pastry bag and fill with white or colored icing. Starting in the
center of the cupcake, just make a circular spiral ribbon until you have the
cupcake covered. You can also start on the edge and work towards the center.
Take your choice of color spray and lightly spray the frosting to give them an
airbrush look. Sprinkle contrasting color of edible decorations on top - like
sprinkles or nonpareils.
Now you have charming cupcakes to
take to parties, bake sales, or meeting.
Hints & Variations:
1. For the right consistency purchase
ready made icing in chocolate, white or color of your choice.
2. Top cupcakes with
jewel picks
or party favor.
3. Use
cupcake
wrappers for fancy occasions.
4. Display on
pedestals or
cupcake stands.
