The Wedding Season

Last weekend my brother got married. It was a beautiful, home-made wedding and one of my jobs was to make 120 mini blueberry cheesecakes and 120 rose cupcakes. I was so pleased with the outcome of these and it was mainly up to the type of piping nozzle I used.

If you want to create this effect, the nozzle you use is really important. If the 'grooves' aren't long/deep enough it won't make the large swirls needed to give the petal-like shape. The nozzle I used is the Wilton 1M, and it's great for creating that signature cupcake swirl aswell.
