Red Rose Buttercream Cupcake

Red Rose Cupcake

Pipe a bouquet of these beauties for Valentine's Day with our premade buttercream and any one our red food gel colors.

Ingredients

  • White Decorating Buttercream Icing
  • Super Red Soft Gel Paste™ Food Color
  • Leaf Green Soft Gel Paste™ Food Color
  • 18" Disposable Piping Bags
  • #1M Open Star Stainless Steel Piping Tip
  • #66 Leaf w/ Vein Notches

Instructions

Use tip #1M with red buttercream and pipe a rose. Start at the center of the cupcake and pipe in a circle toward the edge.
Use Tip #366 with green buttercream and pipe a leaf.
Elevate your Rose Buttercream Cupcakes with a touch of artistry using piping tips #1M and #366. Begin by loading tip #1M with vibrant red buttercream into a piping bag and position it at the center of the cupcake. Gently squeeze the piping bag and start piping in a circular motion, working your way outward. As you do so, let the buttercream form layers, creating the intricate petals of a beautiful rose. The result is a stunning focal point that adds a romantic flair to your cupcakes.
Next, switch to tip #366 and load it with lush leaf green buttercream. Position the tip at the base of the rose and pipe a graceful leaf by applying gentle pressure and pulling away, creating a tapered shape. Repeat this step for each rose, adding a touch of botanical elegance to complement the vibrant red blooms.
The combination of the red rose and the green leaves not only enhances the visual appeal of your cupcakes but also adds depth and a touch of nature's beauty. This piping technique, with its simplicity and elegance, transforms your cupcakes into a bouquet of edible art—a thoughtful and delightful gift for someone special.
