Thank you so much this will help me a lot I’m 11 and decorating cupcakes that I baked for the first time ever 4:53 o’clock pm

[@IScreamforButtercream]

@@IScreamforButtercreamI guess but it turned into my me tearing up a little and being sad cause it was liquid or frozen and my mom yelling and screaming

This is really helpful. Thankyou 😊

Thanks for the video

[@rachybaby72]

Omg, you are a lifesaver! My first try with a piping bag was a disaster, and I don't have time to master it in a couple of days before the bake sale, so I'm going to try your spoon technique. I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you!!!! 😊

[@elsaduyale7352]

Thanks for your videos. I am glad I found your channel.

[@IScreamforButtercream]

So glad it was helpful! 😊

[@Error-uu5ck]

it seems this only works with liquidy frosting like the one in the video

[@IScreamforButtercream]

I wouldn’t consider this a liquid frosting. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I used American buttercream. You can adjust the consistency of that to however thick you want it to be. Just add more confectioners sugar. If it’s super thick then it will bust a ziplock baggie though. The only one that was more liquid was the one that I heated up so that it coated the top of the cupcake.

Can you share what recipe you used for the icing in this video?
