HIDDEN MICKEY SUCCULENT CUPCAKES
INGREDIENTS:
- 1 cup of frosting
- Green, yellow, and taupe gel food coloring
- Piping bags
- Piping tips (#16 and #101)
- Parchment paper
- Piping nail
- Cupcake liners
INSTRUCTIONS:
- Divide the frosting into 4 bowls. Tint 3 of them various shades of green, using more or less of the yellow food coloring. Then, tint the last bowl taupe.
- Place a batch of the green frosting in a piping bag fitted with tip #101.
- Put a dab of frosting on the piping nail and place a square of parchment on top.
- Pipe the design with the wider part of the tip near the parchment paper and the narrower part on top.
- Pipe a mound of frosting on the parchment paper and then start piping the petals in a circular motion, rotating the piping nail as you go.
- Once the flower shape is complete, slide the parchment paper off the nail and place it on a small baking tray. To create the Mickey design, you will need 1 large flower for the face and 2 smaller ones to form the ears.
- Repeat piping instructions with the different shades of green frosting. Once all the designs have been piped, place the tray in the freezer for 2 hours for the designs to firm.
- Using half to the taupe frosting, spread the frosting over the cupcakes until they are level.
- Once the succulent flowers are frozen, gently peel them off of the parchment paper and place them on the cupcakes to form a Mickey design.
- Fit a piping bag with tip #16 and add the taupe frosting. Pipe small decorative designs onto the empty spaces.
Enjoy!
