Decorating cupcakes #22: Christmas Tree

How to make a Christmas tree cupcake.
If I were to do this again I think I would use two mini cupcakes stacked on top of a regular cupcake and simply carve a point into the top cupcake with a knife to make the tree point. Or you could use the cut out method like in the video and use the cone on top of a min cupcake. I would also fill the cavity with icing or ice cream to make a more stable base.
If you use ice cream, put them in the freezer as you make them and take them out for a few minutes to soften before serving.

@kristinachka111 Open your mouth and take a bite and swallow, have you never done this before?  Weird

why do you need to add scotch tape?

[yoyomax12]

@IHaveALollypop It stiffens and strengthens the bag so that you get a leaf shape and so that it doesn't break open on you when squeezing it

can you use a mini icecream cone?

[yoyomax12]

@funfun223lol yes

@ZackyTay Some get eaten, some given away, some thrown out, some have the icing scraped off and the cupcake reused for another video (I'm giving away all my secrets).
