Celebrating Halloween is never the same without spooky cupcakes. Whether trick-or-treating or bonding with family and friends, these tasty delights are great to serve for the Halloween. Make and decorate your individual cupcake or buy it ready-made at your favorite pastry shop.
Cupcake decoration requires less effort, allowing you to be creative with it, like whipping up your delicious own icing. Admit it; a cupcake isn’t just the same without icing. It makes your cupcake more palatable and adds an extra burst of flavor to any ordinary cupcake. If you’re thinking making your homemade icing will be a tough task, think again.
In fact, you don’t have to be a pro to create your own cupcake icing. With a little imagination and passion for coming up with tasty delights, even a kid can make frosting in a breeze. If you’re interested to know how you are able to do this, read on.
The following items are needed to prepare your own cupcake icing:
4 tbsp butter, softened
5 cups powdered sugar, sifted
2 eggs
6tbsp cream
1 & 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 tsp salt
2 oz, chocolate, unsweetened and melted
Orange food coloring
Prepare cream butter. Next, gradually add sugar, leaving a portion to be used for another mixture. Blend well after every addition. This time, add remaining sugar alternately with the egg whites followed with 2 tbsps of cream. Blend until you reach the right consistency of a spread.
Then add in vanilla extract and salt. Distribute the frosting into two equal parts. Put orange coloring to one part of frosting and spread between cake layers.
If you want to make a pumpkin decoration, make sure to save about 1/4 of orange frosting. Then, for the other part, add in chocolate and 4 tbsps of cream, blending well until you reach the right consistency. When your chocolate frosting is ready, spread it on the top and sides of cake. You could also adorn the top with jack-o-lantern, which is made of orange frosting.
You may also use margarine as a substitute for butter. Also, an electric beater can help give your frosting better consistency and a really nice, soft fluff. If you don’t have an electric beater, you may use an egg beater. Make sure to blend all ingredients well to achieve your desired consistency.
Now you’re ready to give your holiday cupcake the frosting it deserves! Write words or put whatever design you like on your cupcakes! Let your creative juice flow. It’s that simple! Go and try it yourself. You won’t even have to break a sweat at it.
