Step 1: Bake and Cool Your Cupcakes Start by baking your preferred cake mix into 24 cupcakes according to the package instructions. Allow them to cool completely before moving on to decorating. Step 2: Shape Your Pumpkin Once cooled, shape your cupcakes into a pumpkin shape with 2 cupcakes at the top for the stem. Step 3: Frost the Cupcakes Using the orange icing in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip, pipe wide rosettes onto each cupcake. If there are gaps, you can pipe additional orange icing between cupcakes to fill any gaps. Leave 2 cupcakes at the top unfrosted. Step 4: Add the Stem Using the green icing in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip, pipe wide rosettes onto the remaining 2 cupcakes. If desired, add a little extra swirl of icing to make a vine. Step 5: Add the FaceUsing the black icing in a piping bag fitted with a smaller star tip, pipe little stars to create the Jac-O-Lantern’s face.
