Detailed recipe post: http://cookiescupcakesandcardio.com/?... Learn how to make New Years cupcakes, a great idea for any New Years Eve party! See our Champagne Cupcakes video:    • How to Make Champagne Cupcakes by Cookies ...   Items used in this New Years cupcake recipe: • cupcakes • buttercream (I used vanilla, chocolate and teal) • cake pops • fondant (any colours) • gum paste • piping gel (I used Wilton) • number cutters (I used Ateco) • silver dragees (silver sprinkles) • white sanding sugar • multi-coloured confetti sprinkles Procedure: Prepare cupcakes, buttercream and cake pops prior to starting. Roll out gum paste and cut out '2014'. Set aside to dry/harden. To make the streamers, roll out fondant and cut small, thin strips. Wrap strips around a round utensil or fondant tool to form a coil. You can either leave them on the tool, or work them gently off. Allow to harden. Once numbers are harden, brush on a small amount of piping gel and cover with sanding sugar. Next, cover cake pops with piping gel and dip into sanding sugar to coat. Place a small dollop of piping gel on one dragee and place on the top of the cake pop. Set aside. Cover cupcake with buttercream, and insert cake pop stick into the center of the cupcake. Arrange '2014' at the front of the cupcake to display it. Cover cupcake with sprinkles and streamers. Add more dragees if desired.
