Yield Makes 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 5

Swiss Meringue Buttercream for Cupcake Decorating
24 cupcakes (any flavor)
Seven-Minute Frosting for Lemon Meringue Cupcakes
Pastry bag
Coupler and various pastry tips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 175 degrees. Fit pastry bag with coupler, and fill with meringue. Pipe flowers and petals onto parchment-lined baking sheets, using different tips to create a variety of shapes and sizes. (We used a leaf tip, multi-opening tip, and star tip. You will need about 16 flowers and petals per cupcake.)
  • Bake until meringue is dry but not brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool on parchment on wire racks.
  • Mound tops of cupcakes with frosting. Immediately arrange meringue flowers and petals on tops.
