1 teaspoon almond extract
2 teaspoons baking powder

When batter is smooth spoon it into 12 muffin cases. Bake at 180ºC for 25/30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the middle comes out clean. Let cool completely.

Frosting
250g mascarpone cheese
250g double cream
1 teaspoon candy floss aroma

Method
In a bowl beat all ingredients with an electric mixer until smooth and fluffy. If you want you can add a few extra drops of aroma

DECORATION
12 confetti (sugared almonds)
70g pink sugar paste
Sugar sprinkles
Icing

Method
Roll out the sugar paste about 2mm thick, cut out small circles and fold them as shown in the picture. Place  three flowers around a sugared almond, seal them with a drop of icing and decorated the middle with a bead.  Cut out strips of sugar paste and start curling the paste inwards with you fingers, keeping it fairly tight to  create the rose petals. Make one rose for each cupcake. Spoon frosting into a piping bag and use a star tip. Trim the top and pipe the frosting around the cupcake. Decorate with the sugared almond and sugar  sprinkles.
