Decorating Cupcakes #52: Hamburger and fries

Decorating Cupcakes #52: Hamburger and fries


Idea found in Betty Crocker's Big Book of Cupcakes and in What's New Cupcake by Richardson and Tack, but I've seen variations on this in many books and online. The fries didn't turn out quite like I wanted, Betty Crocker suggests you use yellow twizzler candies for the fries. NOTE* The starburst candy "cheese" will melt after a few hours when in contact with the cupcake/condiments/brownie. Don't use the "cheese" if you are making these a day ahead of time or only assemble cupcakes the day you are serving them. For more ideas on how to make candy "condiments" see this video:

 Red Velvet Cupcakes Recipe Demonstration -


Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting. Everyone seems to enjoy Red Velvet Cupcakes covered with lovely swirls of Cream Cheese Frosting. While a year round favorite, their red and white color scheme make them particularly well suited for Christmas, Valentine's Day, and Canada Day. Top each cupcake with a fresh blueberry and you have a festive red, white, and blue dessert for July 4th.

Fall Cupcake Cake

Fall Cupcake Cake


Link to all my videos: www.youtube.com This order was for '12 cupcakes with pretty flowers', I thought it would be fun to make it look like the top of the cake. If you couldn't tell from the video, I wasn't real happy with the shape, a square would have looked better but then that would have left bigger gaps between the cupcakes. I don't know if I'll try this again, I think 12 individual cuppies with a variety of flowers on them would have been prettier. But that's just me, I'm not complaining, just saying :D For two tone bags please see my 'Pharmacy Cake' video. The first leaves I made are shown in Roland Winbeckler's Buttercream Flowers book:  I tried them on another cake earlier this year and haven't made them since because it's hard to get the angle just right to make a sharp edge.
