These simple flower cupcakes are iced with colourful buttercream to give your cakes real flower power! Perfect for a spring coffee morning or as dessert at a children's party and they're really easy to do. Use two couplers to make swapping bags even easier!
Ingredients
Pre-made cupcakes
Pink buttercream
Orange buttercream
Instructions
1Using the orange butter cream piping bag, place the tip of the piping nozzle at the centre of the cupcake and pipe a small neat line outwards, towards the edge of the cake
2Repeat this step next to the line you’ve just piped, until you have piped lines all around the edge of the cupcake. Turn the cupcake in your hand to make this easier
3Then, following the same procedure, pipe a layer of neat lines all around the cupcake on top of the bottom layer. (Make them slightly shorter than the piped lines on the bottom layer)
4Using the pink buttercream piping bag, pipe a circular swirl of buttercream in the middle of the cupcake
5Decorate your flower cupcakes even further, however you like! Whether that be with sprinkles, fondant leaves or placing it in a flower pot to amaze your friends with your presentation skills! Feel free to change up the colours too.
