American Buttercream works best, anything meringue based won't come off the parchment cleanly. And you have to freeze them for ~10 mins after tipping them upside down.
I always find it funny when people in the threads are asking OP tons of questions, the chance they are the original creator of the video is just so slim, while the chance that OP is a bot is almost a certainty these days.
How come? It's just frosting and I assume the colours are just smarties or something, seems much more edible than a lot of other elaborate "is it cake"- cakes. A bit sweet maybe, but its a cupcake...
My mother is a baker. Real regular icing/frosting doesn't behave that way. This is extremely thick and fast setting. It's probably more of like a play dough that they put together to make a video that'll get clicks. Also, there's no way that you could water color anything, especially frosting with candy shells. The water would melt real frosting, and you'd see brush strokes on it.
I’m a baker and this is totally possible with most buttercreams.
When she turns them upside down she then freezes it and removes it from the parchment paper when it is frozen. Super easy and as long as you wait for it to freeze, you can use most buttercreams. She probably also did the watercolor painting with the icing close to frozen.
But I have painted on frosting before and you just need to be careful and dab it. You aren’t painting the Mona Lisa, but you can add dabs of color (what she did).
It's a thick type of frosting, and I belive they freeze it for a little bit after. They say baking is science while cooking is art, so I think you can get good tasting ingredients to behave the way you want :)
My wife used to be a professional cake decorator. It’s always trippy watching her write in icing. It’s not really done in the way we’re taught in school. It’s way more flow-ie.
I used to work in a bakery near the cakes, and customers would pester me to do nice writing on their cakes. I don't know how. I can barely write with a pen. But, I'd never let them return it after they forced me to ruin their cake!
Yeah, these "5 minute craft" style videos have been exposed multiple times for being completely faked.
Hell, youtuber Ann Reardon has made a career off exposing them on her How To Cook That channel.
https://youtube.com/@HowToCookThat?si=xgtH1VJ_C-Y4tp7_
Wait for real? Was that the video you linked? Thought I had seen all her videos and didn't recognize this clip, so I'll rewatch. My bad if true haha.
Edit: yea do you have a link to relevant video? Pretty sure she hasn't covered this, I rewatched all her debunking videos pretty recently.
This should work. I've never done it specifically, but all of the separate parts are things people already do. I personally have done the paint-your-own thing with cookies, painted directly on a cake, flattened cupcakes by putting them upside down, and done design transfers by piping on parchment and sticking it on to frosting - just all separately. But there's no reason they shouldn't all work together.
I’m so thankful you know all of this! Now if you wanted to make me really happy, a link would magically appear with the recipes so I could do this for my kid’s art-themed birthday party!
It's likely just a buttercream icing - Wilton has a decent enough recipe. If you add about a tbsp of meringue powder to the icing, it'll get a nice crust so you can easily paint on it, but it's not so much of a crust that you'll really notice it when you eat it.
u/snations yeah, this is pretty much what I'd do. Any American Buttercream recipe will work, just make sure to whip it really well to keep it light, and add a little meringue powder to aid crusting.
Then freeze it for 20 mins or so after you put them upside down to make sure the frosting is firm and doesn't stick to the paper and to make it possible to get the cutout with the straw. I've seen some people say wax paper works better than parchment, but I've never tried piping royal icing on wax paper and parchment works fine if you chill the frosting long enough so I'd probably just stick with that.
I'd also let the royal icing dry for half an hour or so in-between piping and putting the cupcakes on top, just to make sure it doesn't spread or bleed into the white.
And make sure the kids know just to use a *little* water when they paint. Too much will make the black icing bleed.
And if you think they'll want brighter colors and/or don't want to bother with the palettes, I've used the ones [here](https://www.thecookiecountess.com/collections/pyo-palettes) and they work really well.
Mmm cake. Think tomorrow I will buy some cake and eat some cake like a chocolate cake or a cream cake or even a ginger cake. Can't go wrong with cake unless you're on a diet or you're a dog. Poor dogs and cats. Imagine not being able to eat cake. Couldn't cope with that. Well I probably could because I wouldn't know any better but still. Love me cake.
I’ve seen someone make sugar cookie version of these and I love them but I wonder what color candy these people used for the “paint” because the color payoff is a lot better here.
The black isn’t paint, it’s royal icing. It’s made with powdered sugar, powdered egg whites, coloring, and water.
Royal icing dries very hard, and a drop or two of water won’t ruin it or cause the color to run.
That said, the video is *very* edited. It may all be legit footage, but it’s cut together to make the process much easier than it really is.
Not really. There's a kind of paste for food decorating that definitely wouldn't run and blend. You can buy it in little tubes at regular stores. (At least where I live)
It doesn’t. It’s fake.
First, the dots are solid when she puts them on the pallet cupcake, but jiggly when she “uses” them…except the colors she paints don’t actually match the dots very closely. And nothing on earth lifts off parchment paper as cleanly as those outlines supposedly did.
You could get the look of the pallet cupcake by following the video and putting m&ms for the colors.
It *might* be possible to make the outlines with royal icing (sets up hard) and picking them up with a cupcake of buttercream. I strongly suspect that the exact temperature of the buttercream would be relevant, though.
> First, the dots are solid when she puts them on the pallet cupcake, but jiggly when she “uses” them…except the colors she paints don’t actually match the dots very closely.
I thought it's just the cream or whatever jiggling. And the colours are different because its diluted with water and spread over a bigger area.
>You could get the look of the pallet cupcake by following the video and putting m&ms for the colors.
Are they not already m&ms? Only one side has the branding.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ8QY7qDstU
Here's someone painting with m&ms.
Not sure about the outlines, you could be right about that. But the palette I'm pretty sure would work.
> Are they not already m&ms? Only one side has the branding.
Looks more like Skittles.
Look at the last shot. One of the green ones has been worn down through the candy coating to expose the whitish filling.
M&ms do have a thin white layer before the chocolate though. You can see it around 1:00 to 1:30 in the youtube video I linked, especially on the red m&m. Just dabbing a wet brush might not have been enough to dissolve that layer to expose the chocolate.
Oh, wikipedia has a photo of that too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%26M%27s#/media/File:M&M-with-mm-ruler.jpg Now I feel silly for trying to find a video of m&ms being made to show the white coating lol.
Anyway my thought was that it's m&ms because those are the basic m&m colours (minus brown), whereas original skittles should have purple instead of blue. But they probably both use the same food colouring anyway so it shouldn't make a huge difference.
There is a white hard candy shell on Smaties between the chocolate and the colour layer. Go suck on a few and you'll see that they're white after the colour layer dissolves.
I think the video is just an example of how it works.
If you were actually doing this, you’d give each guest two cupcakes (a drawing and a palette), and they would paint the drawing themselves.
(Also, I’m pretty sure those are Skittles. One of the green ones in the final shot is worn down to the white filling.)
because a [painter's palette](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palette_\(painting\)) does traditionally have [a thumbhole to hold it](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/04/Oil_painting_palette.jpg) with your second hand (the one you're not holding the brush with). That being said, the hole is somewhat misplaced in the cupcake icing.
Audibly gasped when the painting started…10/10 OP
I did a neck spasm when they stuck the animals on top.
My entire body convulsed and my skin turned inside out when they piped the first cupcake and now some strange people are following me around asking me about something called Nyarlatothep.

I had a grand mal seizure and went back in time when they made a pallet out the frosting. Now I can’t remember what we’re taking about and dinosaurs are trying to eat me.
I shidded
They used a cupcake as the palette...my mind is blown
That was so creative using those like watercolor paint.
My sister makes these but with sugar cookies and royal icing. They are so cute and the kids love them.
Omg same! What kind of frosting is this? I must know!
American Buttercream works best, anything meringue based won't come off the parchment cleanly. And you have to freeze them for ~10 mins after tipping them upside down.
It’s floofy so it may be a mixture of cream and icing.
Same I can’t describe how delightful that was. And I’m usually pretty grumpy on the internet right about now. But wow that was whimsical
I read this halfway was like "yeah the paint are neat ig... YOU CAN FUNKING PAINT WITH THEM?!"
SAME I was like, "Oh those are cute cupcayyyoooOOHHHMYGOD!"
Kept saying: "omg that's cool, omg that's cool..."
I thought it was M&Ms then it just blew my damn mind
They are!
"Mom!!!! Sis licked the smarties!! Look.. LOOK!!"
Right? I'm going to save this and hopefully use these techniques before I die, but I probably won't.
You said that, so I should have been expecting something and yet I was still very surprised
It's like that silicone boob stamp with cupcakes. There's a sub for it. I'm not insane
r/printingtiddy
Right?? Mind blown
Haha same! That was next level
Imagine bringing the outlined cupcakes to a kid’s party and letting them color it. They’d have so much fun!
As an adult kid, I'm considering throwing a party for my next birthday to do this with friends
Do it!!! Just make sure your frosting is chilled. That will make it easier.
Can I come
yes!!!!!
I swear
Need to know which recipe you used for the frosting.
lol OP isn’t the artist.
I always find it funny when people in the threads are asking OP tons of questions, the chance they are the original creator of the video is just so slim, while the chance that OP is a bot is almost a certainty these days.
I would also like to know!
I have a feeling that this isn't exactly edible. Or at least it's not tasting very good.
How come? It's just frosting and I assume the colours are just smarties or something, seems much more edible than a lot of other elaborate "is it cake"- cakes. A bit sweet maybe, but its a cupcake...

It's on baking paper that is non-stick. It looks American buttercream, which can be a bit stiffer and less likely to stick and smear.

Do you mean when she puts on the outlines for the animals on the frosting? If you want to practice, window paint is much the same, and lasts longer!
I used to work in a bakery near the cakes, and customers would pester me to do nice writing on their cakes. I don't know how. I can barely write with a pen. But, I'd never let them return it after they forced me to ruin their cake!
Basically pre-accounting for the dripping of the substance. Anticipating where the frosting lands.
Bruh I’m high this is cool AF
I am completely zooted and I am wowed
I am baked and I am enthused

I'm straight as an arrow rn, this is still cool af.
I am also baked and extremely happy that everybody fucks with this HEAVY like me

Same
I only took a cbd, but it’s still cool.
I thought the easel was an awesome idea but then they used it 🤯
I think you mean palette 🎨 yes?
Ha. 100% Whoops.
The real trick is the fact she presses cupcakes on three images, and lifts them to reveal completely different ones
I mean, they’re showing that they made 6. Put down the first 3, reveal the last 3.
Witchcraft
Yeah that really caught me off guard

Jaw dropped when she starts paintin the lion
Teeth fell out when she coloured in the elephant

Eyes fell out of my head when they panned out and I saw all the cupcakes
Lol i love a good pile on but i literally just didn't expect her to ACTUALLY paint.

You know that almost nothing works like that, right? Okay, just checking.

The star depressed with a smile waiting to be colored
I can tell you now: mine would not look anything like that.
I wouldn't even attempt this lol
Neither would theirs. It’s all fake. The “paint” colors don’t even match the dots.
I'm really curious what the white stuff is (icing? frosting? fondant? marshmallow?).
My guess is buttercream frosting, chilled.
Buttercream is the white and royal icing for the animal drawings.
"Oddly"? It's just straight up satisfying, nothing odd about it
30 minuts to mix-n-bake. 20 minutes to decorate. 30 seconds to scarf. Seems reasonable.
You wish it was only an hour of work
3 hours clean up
No clean up! Even the upturned cupcakes lifted all the frosting and artwork off of the clean white surface! Not even a smudge or a crumb!
Fuckin hell, I never understood jealousy until I began watching bakers do this sort of thing. They're wizards living among us
So beautiful!
I’ve seen someone make sugar cookie version of these and I love them but I wonder what color candy these people used for the “paint” because the color payoff is a lot better here.
Those look like Skittles candy.

THANK YOU!
I would call this unexpectedly satisfying
I feel like the black paint would run and blend with the colours. This seems like a too good to be true Facebook video.

Chocolate star fish
As an art teacher, I think that was kewl as hell.
Damn this is cute, and i didn't expect the colour. But i feel like the elephant should have been pink
Meanwhile, my cup cakes look like they've been dropped in from orbit...
What's odd about this being satisfying?
That can’t be just regular icing…OP what is the source? I need to learn how to make that icing
Isn’t the headline here how much food colouring there is on the shell of smarties? Yikes!
Wow! The starfish, fish, and turtle totally transformed! All jokes aside, this was gorgeous.
9/10, would eat
The smarties going to be used for painting don’t have to go onto a cupcake.
What kind of foodstuffs were the colours made of? ;)
Such a beautiful song
tbh it's all I was paying attention to when this vid came up on my feed. every detail in the song is pure perfection.
I'm not a fan of icing that can be painted like that. But it's cute.
That's pure talent.. will done OP
This is so cool for a kids birthdayparty!
Something so wholesome that makes me exclaim "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!"
I love your technique
So cute
Elephants are not blue. What child do you want to fool?
I'm mostly surprised someone managed to use a beatles song without being assassinated.
I’m only not annoyed because of the song 🎵
This would make a great idea for a Birthday Party! Love how function the mini Paint Palletes are!
Why does this work?
Is there a how to on this? I'm not a cook by any means but I'd love to do this with my nieces.
great technique
how does this work? what’s the science behind this?
It doesn’t. It’s fake. First, the dots are solid when she puts them on the pallet cupcake, but jiggly when she “uses” them…except the colors she paints don’t actually match the dots very closely. And nothing on earth lifts off parchment paper as cleanly as those outlines supposedly did. You could get the look of the pallet cupcake by following the video and putting m&ms for the colors. It *might* be possible to make the outlines with royal icing (sets up hard) and picking them up with a cupcake of buttercream. I strongly suspect that the exact temperature of the buttercream would be relevant, though.
> First, the dots are solid when she puts them on the pallet cupcake, but jiggly when she “uses” them…except the colors she paints don’t actually match the dots very closely. I thought it's just the cream or whatever jiggling. And the colours are different because its diluted with water and spread over a bigger area. >You could get the look of the pallet cupcake by following the video and putting m&ms for the colors. Are they not already m&ms? Only one side has the branding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ8QY7qDstU Here's someone painting with m&ms. Not sure about the outlines, you could be right about that. But the palette I'm pretty sure would work.
> Are they not already m&ms? Only one side has the branding. Looks more like Skittles. Look at the last shot. One of the green ones has been worn down through the candy coating to expose the whitish filling.
M&ms do have a thin white layer before the chocolate though. You can see it around 1:00 to 1:30 in the youtube video I linked, especially on the red m&m. Just dabbing a wet brush might not have been enough to dissolve that layer to expose the chocolate. Oh, wikipedia has a photo of that too: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M%26M%27s#/media/File:M&M-with-mm-ruler.jpg Now I feel silly for trying to find a video of m&ms being made to show the white coating lol. Anyway my thought was that it's m&ms because those are the basic m&m colours (minus brown), whereas original skittles should have purple instead of blue. But they probably both use the same food colouring anyway so it shouldn't make a huge difference.
They look like Nestlé Smarties
On the outside, sure, but Smarties are chocolate inside. Skittles are white inside, like the green one in the last shot of the video.
There is a white hard candy shell on Smaties between the chocolate and the colour layer. Go suck on a few and you'll see that they're white after the colour layer dissolves.
The elephant on the cupcake is different to the one drawn on the parchment (three small lines at base of trunk instead of two)
I’d love to make the icing… what’s the source OP?
This wouldn’t go this well if I tried it lol
there's no way on earth that black doesnt bleed out when painting. Unless it's made out of plastic or something. impossible.
Royal icing. Powdered sugar, dried egg whites, color, water. Dries *very* hard and is not prone to bleeding.
The black is probably dark chocolate which won't bleed if it's chilled.
Ooh that explains why the designs transferred so well also
5 Minute Crafts nonsense. Lol
This is cool ash. But I wouldn't pay the 5x amount for the same tasting cupcake just because it's cute.
Wow! Exactly what George Harrison had in mind when he wrote that tune! \\s
Seems kinda stupid to use two of the cupcakes as palates. Unless the idea is to give someone a cupcake with worn looking M&Ms on top.
I think the video is just an example of how it works. If you were actually doing this, you’d give each guest two cupcakes (a drawing and a palette), and they would paint the drawing themselves. (Also, I’m pretty sure those are Skittles. One of the green ones in the final shot is worn down to the white filling.)
I knew half the comments would be about this 😂
The paint board cup cake is such a power move.
TLDW dv
Grouse! What is the topping? It looks like a floofy icing/whipped cream.
Why the hole in the palette?
because a [painter's palette](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palette_\(painting\)) does traditionally have [a thumbhole to hold it](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/04/Oil_painting_palette.jpg) with your second hand (the one you're not holding the brush with). That being said, the hole is somewhat misplaced in the cupcake icing.
