Easter Cupcakes

I have kind of been trying to improve my cupcake decorating skills. Today I am working on Easter cupcakes. It has to be easy and fairly simple!

Adding grass to my cupcakes is my main objective in this process. I am using a Wilton grass tip.

I was determined to get the hang of it and discovered it was all in how much icing and pressure I was applying. This one looks too much like a star so I need to apply less pressure and pull the tip a little to get the glassy look.

 Too much pressure and too much icing and my grass looked so not like grass. So take it easy on the pressure!

I jazzed the cupcakes up with Wilton cupcake wrappers and Icing Decorations.

 Now maybe no one will notice they aren't perfect and will eat them quickly! A few jelly beans make it colorful.

 Add a few Peeps to the plate . . . 

and some Decorated cookies from Panera Bread.

I'm going to replate them on Lenox Eternal Gold china and now they even take on a look of elegance. I'm adding them to an Easter tablescape that I'll show you soon.

 Thanks for stopping in to see another attempt by me at cupcake decorating. - Judy.
