Delight in these elegant Rose Swirl Cupcakes featuring moist white cake baked in beautiful floral liners, topped with delicate pink buttercream roses piped with a 1M tip. Perfect for celebrations and tea parties, these cupcakes combine simple ingredients with a stunning decorative finish.

Ingredients

Scale

Cupcakes

  • 1 box white cake mix (prepared according to package instructions)
  • Floral cupcake liners (12 liners)

Buttercream Frosting

  • Buttercream frosting (about 2 cups)
  • Pink gel food coloring (a few drops)

Decorating Tools

  • 1M piping tip
  • Disposable piping bags

Instructions

  1. Prepare Cupcakes: Preheat your oven as directed on the white cake mix box. Line a cupcake pan with floral cupcake liners and prepare the batter according to the package instructions. Pour batter evenly into the liners and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow cupcakes to cool completely.
  2. Tint Frosting: Place about 2 cups of buttercream frosting in a bowl. Add a few drops of pink gel food coloring and mix thoroughly until the color is evenly distributed and reaches your desired shade of pink.
  3. Prepare Piping Bag: Fit a disposable piping bag with a 1M piping tip. Fill the bag with the pink tinted buttercream frosting, making sure not to overfill to maintain control while piping.
  4. Pipe Roses: Starting from the center of each cooled cupcake, pipe a rose by swirling the frosting outward in a circular motion until you cover the cupcake top. Repeat for all cupcakes to create beautiful rose swirls.

Notes

  • Ensure cupcakes are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting the buttercream.
  • Adjust the amount of gel food coloring to achieve your preferred pink shade; gel colors are more concentrated than liquid.
  • The 1M piping tip creates classic star-shaped swirls perfect for rose designs.
  • These cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerated for up to 5 days.
