Answers:
You'll need a stiff batch of buttercream frosting!. (You can get recipes for this online, basically it's just butter, vanilla extract and powdered sugar, and the more sugar you use, the stiffer the final product!.)
Color the frosting as desired, preferably with gel colors, as they provide deeper, more uniform color!.
Put the frosting in a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe it onto the cooled cupcakes with a star tip to get the design!. Remove the star tip to pipe on the dollop on the very top!.
Then use a spoon to sprinkle the colored sugar along the edges and on the top dollop!. A paper plate or sheet of paper can be used as a shield to cover the areas where you don't want the sugar!.
Gel color, pastry bags and tips can be bought at a cake decorating store or a large craft store, or a store like Walmart/KMart!.
This, however, will take a lot of practice to do well!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
