• To finish cupcakes:.
• Dip tops of cupcakes into Butter Rum Glaze and allow excess to drop off before placing back down. This part can get a bit messy.
• Pipe on dollops of frosting, I usually leave some of the cupcake showing cause the glaze is so shiny and pretty.
• Drizzle a small amount of remaining drizzle over top of frosting. Sprinkle with remaining pecan and coconut.
