FAQs
The easiest way to decorate cupcakes is to use chocolates, sprinkles or other candies that you can buy in the grocery store. These things already look great and they are quick and easy to pop on top of your cupcakes. Pre-made candies and sprinkles will add instant, festive pizzazz to your Easter cupcakes!
If you are not a fan of frosting, try using whipped chocolate ganache or chantilly. Whipped mascarpone is also delicious. Or, add a few candies to the top of your cupcakes or just leave them plain! You don't need frosting to have a perfect cupcake.
Creaming the butter and sugar together at the beginning of the cupcake recipe is one of the most important steps to make light and fluffy cupcakes. This adds air to the cupcake batter and will help it bake nice and soft.
