Ingredients

Instructions

  • Prepare all ingredients. Your cupcakes, whatever you pick, need to be cool completely. Cream cheese is best at room temperature for the best whip. Sweetener is best powdered.
  • Place your room-temperature cream cheese and powdered sweetener into a large bowl. Using a hand blender, blend the mixture thoroughly until you get a smooth thick consistency. Take 3/4 of the mixture and place it into a separate bowl. Add food coloring dye or strawberry powder and mix until you are happy with the color. Fill the white frosting into a piping bag fitted with a smaller round tip. At the same time, spoon the frosting with red color into a separate piping bag fitted with a preferred large piping tip. Close both of the bags on top. Place both white and red colored icing into the fridge for an hour to harden even more.
  • To better understand how to pipe frosting on top of the cupcakes, follow the direction in my video. Start with red frosting. Using a swirl movement, start piping the frosting onto the cupcakes. Starting in the center and moving outwards and then back. Build a cylinder shape onto the cupcake, as you see in the video. Take out the white frosting, and around the whole cupcake, make small dots. To finish it, add a little small dot of frosting is piped on top of the hat. Sprinkle with coconut shreds if you want more of a snowy hat decoration.

Notes

  • Cupcake liners - I always use two as one stick on the cupcakes during the baking, and the second is great for the look.
  • Red food color - can be replaced with a tablespoon of strawberry powder, beetroot, or hibiscus.
  • Powdered sugar - if you only have crystalized, blending it in a food processor or a coffee grinder will give you a perfect sanding sugar.
  • Buttercream frosting - place softened butter into the cream cheese mixture.
  • The frosting is soft - place it into the fridge until it hardens.
  • Marshmallow - if you would like to use a marshmallow on top of the cupcakes, but it does not hold, you can fit it onto a thin bamboo skewer and push it into the cupcake base.
