How To Pipe Buttercream Hydrangea Cupcakes/ Hydrangea Cupcake Tutorial/ Star Nozzle Cake Decorating

Hi everyone, so something a little bit different from me today! Last week I made these buttercream hydrangea cupcakes for a birthday. I filmed the process so I could show you how to decorate them yourself.
In this tutorial I show you what tips to use for both the buttercream hydrangea flowers and leaves. I also show to how to create a pretty two tone effect. Link to the piping tips and the colour pastes that I used to colour the buttercream can be found below.

Hi! These are lovely. Can you estimate how much frosting I would need to do hydrangeas on 12 cupcakes? (Blue and white, as you showed us) thank you!

[@ACakeOnLife]

Hi, thank you I am so pleased you like them. I use American buttercream frosting. As an estimate I would say you need at least 2 to 2.5 cups of frosting. You need plenty because you pipe over the cupcake twice. You also need to make sure that you have more than enough as you are splitting the frosting up to make two colours. You want to ensure you have some leftover in case you run out of one of the colours. 😊

[@jenniferdryden4436]

I really appreciate you letting me know! I’ll aim for 3 cups to be sure. 🎉

You're very welcome 😊

What can you recommend to get cupcakes all same size?

[@ACakeOnLife]

hi, to get my cupcakes roughly the same size I try to put the same amount of cake batter into each cupcake case. I use an ice cream scoop to do this, as this helps it get roughly the same amount is each case. Hope that helps. 😊
