Rose Cupcakes.

How adorable are these?! I wanted to add a little bit of pizazz to my everyday, ordinary cupcakes and thought, "Why not roses?!"

The red rose is piped on top of a mini cupcake and the white is piped on a regular cupcake. If you're a beginner, I suggest you start with mini cupcakes. It's less cupcake to work with and frankly, I like it better than the larger rose.

I'm posting a link of the Wilton Step-By-Step rose making guide below, I feel that they're more precise and detailed than I would be at trying to tell you how in the world I did this. Now obviously, my roses are a little different and a lot bigger, but that's because I piped my rose directly onto the top of the cupcake, however, I did still start with the base in step 1 and 2 of the guide, my base was just a little wider and not as tall.

NOTE: you do need a rose tip (or 104 as Wilton says). I did not use the round tip (tip 12), I simply just used the rose tip, but held it flat against the cupcake and piped a small little mountain.

One of the coolest things I think you can make with rose cupcakes, or any other flower cupcake for that matter, is a cupcake bouquet! They are fantastic, and actually look like real flowers! Hopefully I will make one in the near future and share it with all of you grand followers!

Without further adue, here is the link so you can start piping your cupcake roses today! Good Luck!
