How to Frost Cupcakes with Cute Flowers - Decorating with wilton tips
Tip: Highlight text to annotate itX
I'm Robyn Heirtzler, owner of Sweet Mercy, and I'm going to show you in a series of eight
videos how to do these awesome flower cupcakes. You've got your purple, your rose, you have
this beautiful white pearly thing, and of course, your shrubbery, because everyone needs
shrubbery. Anyway, check them all out. If I can make these than I'm pretty sure anybody
can. They're pretty simple but done the right way they can look quite elegant.
We're going to do a gold cupcake. Now this one is just a series of rosettes, a very simple
process that many of you have probably used. We're going to use a little bit smaller star
tip than the tip you typically use to make a big rosette (Wilton 22) over the entire
top of the cupcake. We'll do five around the sides, one on top. Now if you happen do to
six, that's not a major issue, just do it so they fit nicely and you've got a good even
design across the top of the cupcake. So you set your tip down and you're going to do kind
of a loop, go around it and kind of pull it free. Do a loop on top, around it, pull it free.
And one right in the middle, right up on top.
And you've got a gold colored, rosette cupcake, very cute and if you're concerned about the
cupcake showing through, go ahead and just frost that before you do the rosettes on top
and that will help hold all of the moisture in and cover all of the top of the cupcake.
