Hello everyone how are you. Does anyone have any tips to do the cupcakes CAKE. It's my first time and I am putting them close together but I noticed that there is huge gaps in bewteen. Won't the icing fall in bewteen? I've noticed everyone else cupcakes from other stores put the cupcakes so close together. What do I do? Thanks you so mcuh for your responses.

When I've done them before, I push them all together real close (they'll be staggered. Then I use the big icing tip (125?) and a medium to thin bc. I believe there is a link to a tutorial in CC. I'll check and post in a second.

Just as marina34 said, make sure you stagger them so they can get them as close together as possible. I use meduim BC and an icer tip for mine and the BC doesn't fall through.

Oh thank you so much..i saw that demo and it made alot of sense. It's kind of like common sense, but I think the nerves are getting to me that I can't think straight what if they fall off and they crack the painting, but it says to put some BC in the bottom. MILLIONS OF THANKS!!!
