Proudly supported by

TIP! Cupcakes can be made and decorated up to several hours ahead. Icing decorations are available from major supermarkets in the baking aisle. We used Betty Crocker vanilla frosting for this recipe.

Ingredients

410g packet chocolate cupcakes

400g tub Creamy Deluxe Vanilla Frosting

Liquid green food colouring

Mini Lady Birds, Mini Flowers and Roses Icing Decorations

Method

  1. Line a 12-hole muffin pan (1/3-cup capacity) with paper cases.

  2. Prepare cupcake mix according to packet directions, reserving frosting sachet. Divide evenly among prepared paper cases.

  3. Cook in a moderately slow oven (160C) for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until cooked when tested. Remove. Stand in pan 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.

  4. Prepare reserved chocolate frosting according to packet directions. Spread evenly over the cupcakes.

  5. Tint vanilla frosting green with colouring. Using a toothpick, pierce the end of a disposable piping bag several times to create small holes. Fill bag with frosting. Pipe onto chocolate-frosted cupcakes to create “grass” and decorate with decorations, as pictured.
