DIY Enchanted Forest Cupcakes

ENCHANTED FOREST CUPCAKES

I recently received an order for moss / grass cupcakes for an enchanted forest themed party.

I wasn't quite sure what that meant but when the client sent over a picture of what

they were looking for I loved it. The design was simple and elegant.

I frosted each cupcake with green frosting. I then covered each cupcake complete in 

crumbled green cake to achieve the moss effect. Last, I used white fondant and an edible 

green marker for the flower. You can find my complete instruction in the video below. 

Thanks for watching and happy caking!! 

How to Make Chocolate Cake From Box Taste Like Scratch | Bakery Style Recipe

I have been wanting to make this video / post for a long time. I have always struggled with box chocolate cake because it doesn't taste like chocolate. But that's my opinion...lol.

I usually make my chocolate cakes from scratch but time and ingredients doesn't always permit. So I came up with a really simple recipe using chocolate box cake mix. It comes out super moist and chocolaty! Happy Baking!

DIY Sesame Street Cupcakes: Elmo, Cookie Monster, & Oscar the Grouch - S...

I've been working really hard lately on my cupcake / dessert video tutorials for my YouTube channel Sharron's Take. I recently posted one for DIY Thanksgiving Cupcakes and DIY Wedding Cupcakes. When I first started decorating cakes, I came across a ton of general tutorials like how to frost a cake, how to stack a cake and different ways to pipe on cupcakes. I didn't come across a lot of video tutorials that showed how to make specific designs. So I decided to focus on making some of my own for all the future cake decorators and dessert makers out there.
