This is a really quick and easy tutorial to make your cupcakes festive and fun in the winter months! What makes the Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer cupcake even better is that anyone can try it! If you’ve limited cake decorating experience, want quick cupcakes to wow your family and friends with or you need a tasty project to do with the kids in the holiday season then this may be the perfect tutorial for you!
What you will need:
A cupcake
Buttercream (your prefered flavour, we used butterscotch)
Pretzels
M&Ms or Cinnamon Drop sprinkles by Wilton
808 tip by Ateco
White Candy Melts by Wilton
Jet black edible ink pen by Rainbow Dust
Disposable piping bag by Ateco
Fully edible glitter by Twinkle Baker Decor
Step one: Take your filled disposable piping bag by Ateco and pipe a generous swirl atop of your cupcake. Sprinkle with some fully edible glitter to finish!
Step two: Set your cupcake aside and take two white candy melts by Wilton. Using the jet black edible ink pen by Rainbow Dust draw pupils in the centre of the candy melts; now you have your reindeer eyes.
Step three: Now push your reindeer’s eyes into the buttercream at the top and then nestle an M&M below at the centre for Rudolf’s nose.
Step Four: Take your pretzels and push them into the top of the buttercream behind the eyes.
Now you have created your very own Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer cupcake to enjoy during the holidays! Keep checking back to find out how to whip up the other cupcakes below!
