Preheat the oven to 180°C (convection oven 160°C) and divide the baking cups between the muffin pan.
Prepare 500 g FunCakes Mix for cupcakes as indicated on the package. Divide the batter between the baking cups. If you have any batter left, bake a second time. Bake the cupcakes for about 19-23 minutes until light brown and let them cool out the mould on the countertop.
Prepare 200 g FunCakes Mix for Buttercream as indicated on the package. Flavour the buttercream with the FunCakes Flavour Paste and divide into 6 portions. Colour each portion with the FunCakes Food Colour Gels.
Prepare the decorating bags for use. For the small decorating tips, use an adaptor, the larger ones can go in the bag without an adaptor. Fill the bags with cream and decorate the cupcakes as you like. Finish decorating by sprinkling golden pearls here and there.
