  • Total Time: 42 minutes
  • Yield: 6 cupcakes 1x

Ingredients

Scale

6 chocolate cupcakes

9 ounces buttercream

8 ounces white melting chocolate

Toasted hazelnuts

6 Rocher chocolates

Green food gel color

Instructions

  1. Start by melting the white melting chocolates in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second intervals. Stir the chocolate in between each interval.  
  2. When the white chocolate is liquid and smooth, place it in a piping bag. Secure the ends and cut a small hole on the tip.
  3. On a sheet of parchment pipe 2 – 2 1/2 inches ovals with pointed tip. They should look like long tear drops. These will be your petals for the cupcakes. Make 6 or 7 petals for each cupcake along with some extras. Set them aside to dry. 
  4. Next put your buttercream in a bowl and add 2-3 drops of green food gel color in it. Use a spatula to mix the buttercream until it is all one color. 
  5. Put the buttercream in a piping bag, cut a medium size hole in the tip of the bag and secure the end. 
  6. Pipe the green buttercream in a swirl around the top edges of the cupcakes one or two times. 
  7. Put the chopped hazelnuts on the cupcake randomly. 
  8. Bring the white chocolate petals close to the cupcakes. Place the petals around the top buttercream and sticking them slightly into the top of the cupcakes to create a flower.  
  9. Squeeze out a small amount of green buttercream in the middle of the chocolate petals and put the Rocher chocolate on top of it.
  10. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • These cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. 
  • If you can’t find roasted hazelnuts, you can do it yourself by lining a baking sheet with parchment paper, pouring the hazelnuts on it with a little bit of oil and heating them in the oven for 10 minutes on 350 degrees.
