| Duncan Hines cake mix - vanilla flavour tinted pink |
| Use a dab of icing on the bottom of the cupcake liner to help it stay on the cake board |
| I use Wilton colour paste for clear colours. Do not contaminate the colour with the icing |
| once glued down and arranged, put blobs of icing on the cupcakes, then connect the dots of icing. |
| Smooth the icing over the cupcakes, remember to do the sides (I used and offset spatula) |
| Green icing for the turtle head and feet. |
| I put a zip loc bag into a cup and filled it with green icing for the outline. The 3 year old requested a pink turtle..... |
| Squeeze the icing into to zip loc bag (I used a bench scraper), then cut the corner to make an outline) |
| I cut the bag a little too big! Follow the instructions on the video to create a shell. M & M eyes with black gel, mouth is a red vine, peeled. |
| My icing roses from canned icing melted so I used royal icing ones that I stored. |
| A pink turtle cake with strawberries!! |
