city of love

Whisk your true love away to arguably the most romantic city in the world with

these Parisian-style cupcakes, each with their own miniature Eiffel tower!

1 Snip the tip off the small piping (pastry) bag and insert tube (tip) no. 1

before filling it with some grey soft-peak royal icing.

2 Place the Eiffel tower template under the sheet of acetate and pipe over

the lines until you have completed the tower. Working quickly, sprinkle over

the silver edible glitter while the icing is still wet so that it sticks easily. Set

aside to dry for a few hours.

3 Spread a thin layer of buttercream over the cupcakes

and chill in the refrigerator until firm.

4 Roll out the sugarpaste until it is approximately

4mm (⅛in) thick and cover the cupcakes.

5 Roll out some black flower paste to make the bow. Cut a ‘V’ shape in the end of both tails with a pair of scissors or a sharp knife.

6 Finish by attaching the Eiffel Tower

to the centre of the bow, using a small

amount of royal icing.
