For the hydrangeas:
Place your Wilton 2D piping nozzle into your piping bag, line the inside of the piping bag with a darker color.
Place your lighter color buttercream in the centre of the piping bag.
Flat ice your cupcake.
Make sure you don’t have too much buttercream in your bag and that it’s tight at all times.
