Hi Hun I was reading in a magazine, when you have taken out your cupcakes put strait on a chocolate button, this will melt and spread its self…just get ordinary chocolate buttons, can get the white buttons aswell…I will do this next time xxx Hope this helps

Answer #2

okay first take a stick of butter softened, 2 cups of confectioners sugar, a dash of milk, teaspoon of vanilla and mix it with a beater. To make it colored just add food coloring to it, if you want to make more than one color scoop the icing out into seperate bowls.

Answer #3

Em well if you want to make butter cream icing (frosting) you just get icing sugar and butter and whatever amount of butter you use you just double that amount for the icing sugar. E.g. 50 grammes of butter so 100 grammes of icing sugar. Then you mix it all up and if you want to colour it you just put food colouring in.

For the really thin icing you just get icing sugar and put a couple of teaspoons of water in it untill it looks right and mix it all up and again put food colouring in if you want to colour it. Hope I helped :)
