1. Daisy Cupcakes

Daisy Cupcakes Have you ever scene a cupcake that is turned into a daisy? The icing work is absolutely beautiful and it's actually pretty easy. Just get out your pastry bag, use the petal tip and go to town! Dot the center with a little yellow and in no time, you'll have a beautiful daisy that tastes as good as it looks!

Ganache Icing Why do you always have to go with the standard butter cream icing for your cupcakes? Well ladies, you don't! There are so many different icing choices out there and for me, it's ganache all the way. Rich, glossy, and impossibly decadent, ganache icing elevates any cupcake from ordinary to extraordinary. With just a simple blend of cream and chocolate, you achieve a smooth, luxurious finish that pairs perfectly with a variety of flavors. Whether you're a fan of dark chocolate or prefer a milkier touch, ganache offers a versatile and sophisticated twist to your baking repertoire.

5. Fondant

Fondant If you're really skilled and looking for one of the greatest ways on how to ice a cupcake, why not go with fondant? Just a warning, fondant isn't for everyone but it does make some awesome looking treats. Fondant is a dough that can be formed into pretty much anything. It's sugary sweet and delicious tasting!

6. The Swirl

The Swirl If you're looking for a simple and easy way to impress your guest, just pop on a crinkle tip and make a swirl on top of your cupcake. Another great way to make your icing really pop is to add a bit of color to it. Do you have chocolate cake? Why not spice it up with a hot pink swirl of icing? It'll totally wow your guests!

7. Droplets

Droplets The final 'how to ice a cupcake' lesson that we're going to talk about is droplets! I love this type of icing technique. All you do is take any tip you prefer and make little Hersey kiss or teardrop shaped droplets all over the top of the cupcake. It looks cool and is so easy!

Cupcakes are honestly great for any time of year and can be used for any occasion. I love learning new ways on how to ice a cupcake! It's totally a passion of mine and I've wowed so many of my guests with all of the different techniques I've learned. What about you ladies? Can you tell me some techniques that you use on how to ice a cupcake? Give 'em up!

A could be wrong here, but those daisies in the picture do not have frosting as the petals- they're cut marshmallows....
