Roll out white fondant icing to approximately 3mm thick and cut out one circle for each cupcake using an 8cm round cutter. Start by adding your choice of buttercream, or frosting, to the top of the baked (and cooled) cupcakes - you want this to be quite a stiff consistency. Due to the dome shape of the top of the cupcake, each little blue triangle needs to be cut to size by eye and positioned on the cupcake - make sure to leave a gap for the thin red stripes. Pipe a swirl of buttercream on top of each cupcake using a Wilton 2D nozzle – hold the piping bag at a 90° angle directly over the cupcake.
