Steps:
- Cut the licorice twists into thirty-six 3/4-inch pieces for the pumpkin stems. Tint the vanilla frosting orange with the food coloring. Tint 1/2 cup of the orange frosting a darker shade of orange with more food coloring, and spoon into a ziplock bag. Press out the excess air, seal the bag, and set aside.
- Place the orange decorating sugar in a shallow bowl. Spread the lighter orange frosting on top of the cupcakes, mounding it slightly. Starting on the edge, roll the cupcake tops in the sugar to cover completely.
- Use a wooden skewer to mark ridges in the top of each cupcake. Starting in the center or slightly off center, lightly press the skewer down toward the top of the paper liner to create 5 or 6 indentations. Snip a 1/16-inch corner from the bag with the darker orange frosting and pipe a line in each indentation to make the ribs. Insert a cut green twist for the stem. Arrange the cupcakes on a serving platter or a cutting board and add the green licorice laces, trimmed to various lengths, for the tendrils.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor and texture.
- Be sure to let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them.
- For a smoother frosting, use heavy cream instead of milk.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziploc bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting.
- To make the cupcakes look extra festive, top them with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or a candy pumpkin.
Conclusion:
These pumpkin patch cupcakes are the perfect way to celebrate fall. They're moist, flavorful, and topped with a delicious cream cheese frosting. They're also easy to make, so you can enjoy them even on a busy weeknight. If you're looking for a fun and festive treat to share with your friends and family, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit.
