A yellow cupcake, sturdy enough to support the decorations but moist and flavorful. Instructions for creating decorations are on the SpatulaQueens.com blog. These cupcakes can be made ahead and frozen until ready for use. This recipe was adapted from the Joy of Baking with these changes: used 2 whole eggs instead of one egg plus two yolks. Plain yogurt didn't work - the cupcakes were dry. Also, we made 14 instead of 12 cupcakes to achieve a more manageable size for decorating.
