Those are too pretty eat!!! Well done. How do you get the frosting to look so perfect???

[sickgirliezele]

Thank you! its just lots and lots of practice! what i like to do is use a big star tip (I can't remember the # off the top of my head) anyhoo.. the star tip helps to cover up any slip ups you might get.

for practice sometimes i'll use a plastic lid and that way i can reuse the frosting after i've mapped out my "design"

damnnnn i wish it was vegan =/

just replace egg with egg replacer or flaxseeds or a banana, margarine instead of butter, and, using a recipe like this, http://www.cupcakeproject.com/2009/12/h ... youll.html, make vegan irish cream liqeur! use soy cream and I'm pretty sure you could make sweetened vegan condensed milk by reducing soymilk by half or so and sweetening the hell out of it with powdered sugar. and then invite me over.

guinness isn't even vegetarian, so there goes that idea =\

guinness kinda dried out my cupcakes and to be honest there wasn't really any of the guiness flavor in it. they tasted like dry, chocolate cupcakes. you can leave it out and just make vegan chocolate cupcakes instead.
