Do you have any tips on making cupcakes?!


Question:

Do you have any tips on making cupcakes?

I am opting for cupcakes this year for my daughter's birthday party instead of a cake. We will be serving 30 adults and 12 kids. I want two flavors of cake. Do you have any tips on baking and frosting cupcakes at home? what brand cake mix should I get & how do I make the frosting not look sloppy? Any tips would help!

You should put them in ice cream cones. YUM!

Making them from scratch is really easy and they'll taste great. Don't worry about making the frosting perfect; it's kinds fun when it's a little messy looking. They're just cupcakes and no one expects them to be looking like a wedding cake.

Wilton makes a cupcake tree that is adorable!!! I bought mine at a specialty shop but have since seen them at Walmart. It holds 27 I think(you can have the rest on plates on either side) and it makes a beautiful centerpiece.! Any cake mix will do and any frosting but look for edible cake sparkles from Wilton also.Any place that carries cake and candy making supplies will stock them. They make a basic cupcake look great!!! Put a purchased sugar decoration in the middle and there you go! Also tissue paper, tulle, raffia look great between the tiers of the cake tree. I've used mine lots!!!

Well, don't fill the moldings to full, or when your cupcakes rise the will overflow and burn, which smells terrible.
