Fall Cupcake Design

Here is a fun fall cupcake design!

What I used:

- Cupcakes

- Vanilla frosting

- Orange gel food coloring

- Copper gel food coloring (came in 12-pack of Wilton food coloring)

- Dark chocolate melting wafers

- Parchment paper

- Cooking spray

I melted the dark chocolate wafers in a microwave on defrost setting for 15-30 sec. intervals -- in a plastic bag. Then I snipped the corner and piped some chocolate leaves on parchment paper that I covered with cooking spray.

Then I put the leaves in the fridge to set and harden.

I mixed a touch of food coloring (copper and orange - separate bowls) with vanilla frosting. I think the copper food coloring is a nice unexpected color that goes along well with the orange cupcake as well. You could also do a marbled effect of orange with copper frosting or also try brown chocolate or red cupcakes for fall leaves colors.

Give it a try! We are good at this!
