So, a few readers have asked how I get my cute little frosting tops. This is the frosting recipe I use. The consistency always comes out perfect for piping on to cupcakes. I put it in a piping bag fit with the Large Coupler, and I’m not sure the exact number tip I use…I’m not near it right now…but it is one pretty close in size to the the 1M from Wilton. Other recommendations I have is to make enough or more than enough frosting to cover the cupcakes. You’ll want to pile the frosting high to get that swirly-tower-of-frosting look. And you’ll also want to start on the edge of the cupcake, spiraling inward… its hard to describe in words, so just watch! 
Here is a video of Daniel piping some frosting on to our Turtle Brownie Cupcakes:
