Jcandleattic Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 They smell yummy! I did a two orange and white swirl in the bottom, but it really melded together so not sure what I'll get when I take the cups off. I used whipped soap to pipe the tops (what a mess that was - the whole thing really), with orange coated on the bag so when piped it got a bit of the orange, and after I put the glitter on, it looked like it needed something so I scrambled around and found those balls from previous soaps and put them on top. LOL I used a vanilla stabilizer, because I know this has a large vanillin content in it. However, the oil itself is really dark, so it darkened the batter to an ecru color which I guess actually works in this case. I like them, but I don't think whipping the soap to pipe is the way to go. LOL At least not for me. I thought it would give it a nice fluffy feel and it did, but it was such a mess it took me about an hour and 15 minutes just to make these 11 cupcakes. Bleh Anyway here they are! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I didn't mention that the original bag I tried to pipe out of was 1) too small, and 2) I cut the tip at the wrong place so it was just coming out of the tip like it was a round tip not a starred tip, so I also had to switch piping bags in the middle of trying to pipe, which then loosened the whipped soap a bit, and it was just a HUGE mess... I mean HUGE. So... again, Bleh! LOL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
