Kitchen Notes

Stir in 2-3 tablespoons of the International Cafe Mocha Mix into the frosting. To fill use the “cone method”. Take a small paring knife and cut a cone, less than a quarter in size out of the center of each cupcake. Fill a pastry bag with the frosting and pipe in the frosting.  Replace the top portion of the cupcake to cover the frosting hole. Frost each cupcake to cover the cut.
