How to Make Frozen Cupcakes

Some of the ingredients you will need to make these Elsa Cupcakes is in this picture below. However, I have the full ingredients and recipe to print out towards the bottom of the page.

Winter Cupcakes

This recipe only calls for a few ingredients and if you use premade cupcakes, you don’t even have to worry about cooking them!

One dozen vanilla cupcakes
¼ cup butter, softened
1 cup icing sugar
1-2 tbsp milk
1 cup white candy melts
5-6 oz. baby blue fondant (you can take 4-5 oz. white fondant and add 2 small drops of blue gel food coloring to achieve the right shade)
2-3 oz. white fondant
1 circular cookie cutter, about 2.5 inches in diameter
Fondant embosser

If you really want to make this recipe even easier buy store bought white icing too.

Before decorating these cupcakes, ensure that they’re completely cool to the touch. If you’ve ever tried decorating cupcakes that are warm then you know they become a drippy mess.

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer and beat together butter, icing sugar and milk. These ingredients make up the buttercream.

Start the electric mixer on low and gradually increase to high. Once all the ingredients are well-combined and form semi-stiff peaks, the buttercream is done.

*Remember you can always skip this step by purchasing a jar of white icing.

Frost each cupcake.

The next step is to roll the baby blue fondant so that it’s about ¼ of an inch thick.

Use the fondant embosser to give the blue fondant a quilted look. Technically you could skip this step, but we love the way the quilted pattern makes the cupcake look.

Using the circular cookie cutter, cut out 12 fondant circles from the baby blue fondant and press one blue fondant circle on top of each cupcake.

Place white candy melts into a bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals until they are completely melted, stirring between each interval.

Line a baking sheet with wax paper so you can make your snowflakes without them sticking.

Scoop the melted candy into a piping bag and pipe out snowflakes on the lined baking sheet.

To achieve the snowflake candy, start by piping out a one-inch line. Follow the line with an “X.”

Pipe out two dots on either side of the candy lines and allow your snowflakes to set.

To assemble one braid, roll out 3 spheres from the white fondant, about ½ an inch in size.

Roll out the spheres into long, thin strips, about 5 inches in length.

Press the tip of all three strips and braid.

Press the braid onto one edge of each cupcake, trimming where necessary. (Note: If the fondant isn’t sticky enough to press onto the cupcake, brush water on the back of the braid to secure.)

Use a toothpick to dot white buttercream on the back of the snowflake candies. Secure one on each cupcake.
