Instructions

First of, prepare your cupcakes. I have the easy cupcakes and chocolate cupcakes full recipes on the site. Pick the one you prefer. Once you bake them, place them on a cooling rack to cool completely for the frosting to hold.
Using a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, whisk together cream cheese with sweetener in a medium bowl scraping the side of a bowl as needed. Once you have a smooth frosting, add green color and mix until you are happy with the hue. Place your frosting into the piping bag fitted with a small star end tip. Close on top and place into your fridge for an hour for the frosting to harden.
Take your frosting from the refrigerator. Pipe a tiny dot in the middle of a cooled cupcake and attach your strawberry onto the cupcake. Start piping small star dots from the base of the cupcake around your strawberry. Continue to pipe the frosting in a circular motion as a second layer above it. Keep piping until a whole strawberry is covered, and you create a tree. Take out your sprinkles and beautify the tree.

Notes

Green color - if you want to go the natural way, matcha, spinach, or spirulina powder are great.
Cupcakes cool - need to be thoroughly cooled before accessorizing
Sprinkles - make in advance and mix your favorite colors.
Sweetener - it is best to use powdered sugar or icing sugar. If you do not have one at home, a coffee grinder or food processor will powder any sweetener in seconds.
