Easter Cupcakes


I brought cupcakes to Easter dinner, so I thought I would make them look cute and festive.  After thinking of ideas for the decor on the top of the cupcake, I decided on this.  I was going to make the batter from scratch, but decided it would be easier to just use a mix, so I did.  I used a Betty Crocker's Devil's Food Cake mix and prepared it according to directions.  Then I let them cool completely before I frosted them.

Here's how I did it:

1.  I used my Mom's recipe for frosting for decorating cakes and tinted 2/3 of it light green and the other 1/3 was just white.

2.  I used a Wilton #32 tip for the "grass", starting the spiral from the middle and going outward. (Green frosting)

3.  Then I used a Wilton #18 tip for the bunny tails, and Wilton #5 tip for the feet.  (White frosting)

So it looks like these cute little bunnies are stuck in the grass with just their feet and tails peeking out.  :)
