- Frost Santa’s Face:
- Spread a layer of skin-tone frosting across the top center of the cupcake. If you don’t have skin-tone, stick to white frosting—it’ll still look amazing!
- Make the Hat:
- Pipe red frosting in a triangle or swirl shape at the top. Add a mini marshmallow at the peak for the pom-pom. Line the bottom of the hat with mini marshmallows or white buttercream dots for the fluffy trim.
- Create the Beard:
- Use a star tip and pipe white frosting in a swirly, fluffy pattern to make Santa’s beard.
- Add the Details:
- Eyes: Use black gel icing or mini chocolate chips.
- Nose: Place a red candy just below the eyes.
- Optional Finishes:
- Dust the cupcakes lightly with edible glitter for extra holiday magic.
Serving Tip:
Arrange the cupcakes on a platter with some fake snow (cotton or powdered sugar) and mini candy canes. These will steal the show on your dessert table! 🎁
What flavor combo are you thinking for the cupcake base? Or are you leaning into chocolatey goodness as usual? 😊
