I have a huge passion for baking and decorating cupcakes. My tip is to use buttercream for icing and use a large metal piping nozzle which enables you to create a “rose effect” on the top of the cupcake.

I would also say invest in plunger cutters which enable you to create beautiful hearts, stars and flowers to decorate your cupcakes with.

I don’t think you can beat a classic vanilla sponge with vanilla buttercream icing in a range of colours- delicious!
