Red, White, and Blue Cupcakes

I made these chocolate cupcakes for the USA/Ghana World Cup game and for the Fourth of July. Even though they looked good, I must not have put enough magic in them because the US team lost...

I used the brush striping method to make red and blue stripes. On some of the cupcakes, I used tip #4B to cover them with stars. I used tip #1M on other cupcakes to frost them with a swirl.

USA! USA! USA!
