Video Transcript

"Hi I am Georgette Rampone from Expert Village. We have just made some delicious pumpkin spice cupcakes and now we are going to ice them with this delicious vanilla bean cream cheese icing. We are going to start off by putting a dollop of icing on the top. We add a little bit more icing because I do not know about you but I like my icing a little bit more generous. The mixing technique is to get a rounded spoon and just swirl it around the cupcake. This gives it a wonderful homemade look. I will do a few more. I use a generous amount of icing. I am going to swirl, swirl and make it very homey just like your grandma would have made. I am going to get a little closer up with the swirl. I am doing a spreading technique first, spreading it around and then I am swirling to make little swirls. There we go.
