Follow along with our step by step Buttercream daffodil piping tutorial and learn how to make these easy buttercream flowers! Daffodils are one of my favourite spring flowers, and they make beautiful buttercream decorations for a spring flower cake or cupcakes! These flowers are also called jonquils. For this flower piping tutorial you will need a # 104 petal piping tip with a medium consistency yellow buttercream as well as a # 1 (or any small round tip) and a small amount of white buttercream for the center of your daffodils. These can be piped onto a flower nail, chilled and placed onto a cake or directly onto a cupcake for an easy spring daffodil cupcake! • To begin, attach a square of parchment to a flower nail (if using). With the narrow end of your # 104 tip at the center of your flower nail or cupcake and the wide end facing out, begin piping the petals by applying pressure and moving out toward the outside edge of your piping surface in an arching motion, while gently turning your flower nail or cupcake. Next, rock (pull) your tip back down toward the center, while turning your nail or cupcake and applying pressure to finish forming your petal. Continue until you have 6 petals. For the last petal lift your tip up slightly so that you don't drag in through the first petal that you piped. • Switch to your # 1 or small round tip. Pipe a small mound in the center. On top of this mound pipe 6-10 long stamen for the middle of the daffodil. Switch back to the # 104 tip and with the narrow end up, and the wide end tucked right next to your center mound apply pressure while slightly wiggling your piping tip and spinning your flower nail to fully encircle the center of your flower with the delicate daffodil cup petal. Allow these to set in the fridge for 20 minutes to firm up before using to decorate your daffodil cake! I have included my buttercream recipe below, but any American buttercream would work. Feel free to use your favourite buttercream recipe! • Buttercream Recipe: • Ingredients • 1/2 Cup butter softened to room temperature • 2 Cups powdered sugar • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract • 1-2 Tablespoons milk • Directions: • In a large bowl if using a hand mixer or in the bowl of your stand mixer cream butter on medium low speed for 2-3 minutes or until fluffy and pale in colour. Add 1/2 of the powdered sugar and mix for 2 minutes. Add remaining powdered sugar and mix for another 2 minutes. Your buttercream should be fluffy, pale and thick at this point. Add vanilla and 1 tablespoon of milk. Mix well. If the buttercream is still too thick/stiff add another tablespoon of milk and continue mixing. You will want a medium consistency buttercream to pipe your flowers with! Add food colouring if using. • Buttercream Flower Piping Tutorial Series: • Buttercream Rose : • Easy Rose : Buttercream piping tutorial • Buttercream Sunflower : • Easy Buttercream Sunflower - Piping t... • Buttercream Daisy : • Buttercream Daisy - Easy daisy piping... • Buttercream Mum : • Easy Buttercream Mum - Fall flower Ch... • Buttercream Carnation : • Buttercream Carnation - Easy carnatio... • Buttercream Wild Rose : • Wild Rose - Buttercream piping tutorial • Chapters: • 0:00 - Piping tips and colors • 0:15 - Daffodil piping on a flower nail • 1:36 - Daffodil cupcake piping • 2:30 - Finished daffodils
