Cupcakes

This is my very first attempt at using cake decorating tips. Bought them early this year so Randy could fill my birthday cupcakes with filling. But I have never used them, and have wanted to for a while. So this is my first attempt. Tomorrow we have FHE with my family and I have to bring the dessert. I wanted to do something with Halloween. I came across this owl cupcake, so I thought this is what I have to do. I really wanted to try something new. This is what it is supposed to look like.




And this is what mine looks like.



It kind of looks like the picture. For my very first attempt, I think I did a great job. With more experience I will just get better. I couldn't get the frosting a brighter orange or a darker brown. When I went to buy the doughnuts at the store they didn't have any chocolate covered with just brown sprinkles. I bought glazed instead and would frost my own. For the owls nose it was supposed to be a huge glob of orange frosting shaped like a nose, I didn't want that much frosting so I bought a twist doughnut and cut it in half and then frosted it. Now we while have to wait until tomorrow and see if it taste any good.
