Snow-Much-Fun Cupcakes

It snowed a few days ago and it hasn't melted (yet).  I just love it...so when I saw these cupcakes on the Wilton web site, I was wishing for 10 more feet!

Soft-Serve Swirl Cupcake

Love this cupcake from Wilton!  It looks just like the soft-serve ice cream cones I used to get at Dairy Queen when I was in high school.  Click the Wilton link to get the instructions to make this tasty treat.  

How to Make Puffed-Up Petals

I love the look of these puffed up cupcake "flowers" by Wilton and am making them this weekend.  Here is the video that I am using to learn!

Puffed-Up Flower Cupcakes

This video shows how to make cupcake decorations that look like puffed-up flowers.  Very easy to make!  You need to make the petals at least 24 hours in advance so they will have time to dry.

Basic Decorating Supplies

Holiday baking will begin soon and every cupcake baker needs a few basic decorating supplies. You don't need much to get started.  In fact, I use one or two tips and a pastry bag to decorate most of my cupcakes.  You can go simple or go fancy.  I prefer the simple route unless I am making wedding cupcakes or going all out for a special occasion. 

Wilton has a great tutorial for each step in cupcake
