What tools do i need to buy to decorate cupcakes?
I need to make around 70 cupcakes for Kira's birthday celebrations this week and next week. I want to ice them nice. What do I need to buy and where do I buy it? Any icing recipes to share? Thanks.
Re: What tools do i need to buy to decorate cupcakes?
Assuming you want to do a simple swirl with the icing (which is easy but looks professional), you will need:
Icing bags
1M icing tip
cupcake liners
You can get all of this at Michaels, Hobby Lobby, or JoAnn's.
Here is a great vanilla icing recipe. If you want to color the icing, you can get gel colors (also at Michael's, etc). For 70 cupcakes, you'd probably need 4-5 batches of this icing.
Here is a cupcake icing tutorial from my blog.
Hope that helps!!
