Please forgive me if this is already a topic, but I did a few searches and found no results.
I have made up my mini cupcakes & icing and I want to do something cute with the icing besides just slapping it on with a spatula (these cupcakes are for a Mary Kay party). What Wilton tips do you use for icing the mini cupcakes?? Do you know of any tutorials??

You could use a tip 12 or 16.

I use the same tip on all cuppies, mini, standard, and jumbo: tip 2D. If you want to do something really different, you could pipe a rose or a mum directly onto the cuppies.

I use 1M on all of my cupcakes, regular and mini.

I do love the 1M tip. I've just never used it on a mini! Glad to know it works.

I'd probably use like a 21 on a mini....

I ran up to Michael's and bought the 1M tip. The cuppies turned out soooo cute! I found this tutorial on the Wilton website that helped me out: http://www.wilton.com/technique/1M-Swirl

Thanks to everyone that replied!
