How to Decorate a Frost Cupcake



Ever wonder how our Frost cupcakes are created? Here is an inside look at our Snickers Cupcake being topped off with caramel, milk chocolate drizzle, and chopped peanuts.

How to Create Icing Designs on a Cake



Once your cake has been frosted, the final step is, of course, to decorate it! The most common decoration is festive icing designs. With a piping bag, almost any design imaginable can be created. In this video, we see a simple, common design lining the outside of the top of the cake.

How to Frost a Cake Evenly


After filling the sides to make sure your cake is absolutely perfect, the top coat of the frosting is applied. This is a short video of a chocolate cake being frosted with vanilla frosting.

How to Frost the Inside Layer of a Multi-layered Cake

Healthier Cupcakes


Cupcakes are delicious! However, things that are delicious come at a high price. That high price just happens to be calories. The butter and oil needed for cakes can be worrisome for those on a diet or counting their calories. Frost has the answer for you! In order to cut back the calories, you can substitute 1/4 of butter and 1/4 of oil and replace it with applesauce. This will change the outcome of the cupcakes a little but that will not be as much of an issue when you're eating cupcakes and still within your calorie count!

Save Money on Cupcake Liners

Baking cupcakes daily can become a bit expensive. Rather than having to buy all of the ingredients and tools over and over, cut down your shopping list with reusable shaped cupcake liners. These inexpensive tools will only need to be bought once every two years due to wear and tear depending on how much baking is involved. Reusable cupcake liners are not only safe for ovens and microwaves, they are also Earth friendly! Going green is important even when baking. For 30 count of reusable cupcake liners from Amazon costs only $19.99. With a choice of traditional round liners, star liners, and flower liners be creative! Reusable Cupcake Liners


How to Put Frosting Inside Your Cupcake


Traditional cupcakes are always delicious; there's no question about that! However, frosting makes everything taste better! You can never have too much frosting! For only $6.99, this tool you can punch a hole right in the center of your cupcake and fill it with whatever you want; frosting, pudding, ice-cream, ANYTHING! The goal of cupcake creation is to be as creative as possible! Cupcake Punch

How to Make Your Cupcakes All the Same Size!


It is always so frustrating when trying to make each cupcake the same size in height. Yes, we know, you have tried everything but it's just impossible! Filling the same size ladle half-way full each time and still different sizes! It looks unprofessional and can be extremely tiring. Fortunately, cupcake technology has come a long way. Now, instead of losing half of the cupcake batter in various bowls, and measuring cups and ladles, there is now a batter dispensing tool that includes a measuring cup right in the dispenser! It is all of those different tools you would lose half of the batter in with less of the mess and more or the batter for cupcakes! For only $14.25, you can purchase your own cupcake dispenser and measuring cup from Amazon. Cupcake Dispenser and Measuring Cup


Tired of Traditional Bags?


As a beginning baker, decorating cupcakes with frosting can be a very difficult process. The piping bags can often be very flimsy if not filled the correct way. Luckily for aspiring bakers, Bed Bath & Beyond has an alternative frosting tool. For only $9.99, you can purchase an adorable tool that practically frosts the cupcake for you. along with various piping caps, the tool comes with a retractable spatula that can manipulate the icing however you like! Alternative Cupcake Tool

Put a Lid on it!



Along with the Frosting bags, these caps are among the most important tools for creating unique cupcakes. The way the frosting is topped on the cupcakes is very crucial because it is the first thing consumers will notice. These caps help create complex designs such as the Rose Flavored Cupcake top.These caps are easily replaced on the bags by only applying to the pointed, bottom tip of the bag.

From the Bottom to the Top!



Every ingredient used for Frost Cupcakes are vital. Now, we're not just talking about the edible ingredients! The cupcake papers used for our cupcakes and yours represent the personality behind them. Each paper for each cupcake should be as unique as the themed cupcake!

Let's Get Frost-ing!



One of the most commonly used tools for cupcake creation is the icing bag. Next week, tutorial videos will be uploaded instructing you on how to fill and use this useful tool. An interesting fact about these bags is that they come with various caps that are placed at the bottom opening of the bag to help create the desired frosting design.

Cupcake Pearls



One of the many edible decorations Frost uses is edible pearls. These "pearls" are made of sugar and act as an elegant topper for our delicious cupcakes. These are mostly used for events such as weddings and black tie events. This creative addition can be purchased at most major supermarkets in the baking isle.

Easter Cupcake



The Holiday's deserve some attention too! For Easter Sunday, surprise your family members with a delicious, unique cupcake! A moist chocolate cake, coated with vanilla buttercream frosting all topped with toasted coconut shavings and an Easter egg whopper candy.
