• Put the margarine, sugar, eggs and flour in a bowl and using an electric hand whisk , beat together until smooth. Spoon the mixture into the cases.
• Bake the cupcakes in a preheated oven, 180C/350F, for 15- 20 minutes or until well risen, golden  brown and firm to the touch. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

• Knead the icing ( any colour of your choice) until piliable, then roll out on a work surface dusted with icing sugar. Using the palm of your hand, lightly rub icing sugar into the icing to prevent it from spotting.  Using a round cutter , cut out the circles,  rolling it again  as necessary. Place a circle on top of each cupcake.
• Roll out again adding different colour . Using your own ideas  cut them to decorate on top.
