I google searched unicorn cupcakes. One suggested stuffing the inside with icing stars or sprinkles. I pushed a space in the cake using an apple corer, then poured in the stars. |
The icing bag can rest in a cup to add the icing. |
I used a large star dot nib. |
the icing is all butter, cream and clear vanilla flavouring - you could also add butter flavouring. I always sift the icing sugar. |
Time to colour! remember to use a new tooth pick each time to avoid adding icing to the colour pot. |
I went dark with the colours. |
I used a dinner knife to add a row of each colour |
If it is easier to add colours while holding the bag do that instead of using the glass. |
I smooth down the icing using a bowl/bench scraper. A student showed me this ! It helps avoid air pockets |
I had never done this before; I am happy with the results! |
I found it easier to put the cupcakes in the pan and decorate. |
Colourful display |
Left over using on the left over cake! |
