Foodie Friends Friday Linky Party #81

Welcome to the Foodie Friends Friday 

BERRY FRESH Party!!

Last week's recipes that received the MOST CLICKS!!  

"Bee My Honey" Cupcake Tutorial

These beehive cupcakes are super easy to make.  I used pre-made Bumble Bee Icing Decorations from Wilton.  These would be great for Valentine's Day, Anniversary, or a Birthday party. 

"Bee My Honey" Cupcake Tutorial

Yellow cake cupcakes (or white cake mix tinted yellow)
You favorite frosting recipe (see mine here)
Buttercup Paste color
Size 12 Round Decorating Tip
Decorating Bag (I use disposable ones)

Tint your frosting.  Use just a small amount of paste to color the frosting. It doesn't take much and if you put too much in you can't go back! Add icing to decorator bag fitted with Size 12 round tip.  You can use a star tip if you like but I prefer the smooth look of the honey bee hive.
