Step 6: To pipe flowers on the cupcakes, place about one-fourth of the frosting in a small bowl, add 2 dabs of yellow food coloring, and mix with a rubber spatula until the frosting is evenly tinted. Fit a pastry bag with a small round tip (see page 15), then transfer the yellow frosting to the bag; set aside. Fit another pastry bag with a petal tip, then transfer the remaining white frosting to the bag.

Step 7: Pipe white petals by positioning the petal tip horizontally with the wide end in the center of the cupcake, then, while gently squeezing the bag, make a half-moon motion with the outer,thinner edge of the tip. Pipe another petal slightly overlapping the first one. Repeat until petals cover the top of the cupcake. Use the piping bag with yellow frosting to pipe a yellow center on the flower. Decorate the remaining cupcakes in the same way.

Brigh bomsBe creative and use any color combo for your flowers. Try bright petals paired with white or yellow centers.
