Instructions
- First divide the buttercream into 4 small bowls and mix the red food coloring in one bowl, the orange in another and the brown in the third bowl. Keep the 4th bowl white.
- For the pumpkin pie mini cake bites, frost the top of the cakes with orange frosting with a knife.
- Next using the #16 piping tip, pipe a scallop edge around the mini cake for the crust with the brown frosting.
- Now using the #32 piping tip, pipe a small star of white buttercream in the middle of the mini cake.
- Sprinkle with a little pumpkin pie spice if desired.
- For the cherry pie mini cake bites, frost the top of the cakes with red frosting (you may add a very small amount of cherry extract to the frosting if you want a cherry taste).
- Sprinkle a few red sugar pearls on top.
- Now using the #3 round piping tip, pipe lines in a grid pattern on top of the mini cake bites with the brown frosting.
- Next using the #16 piping tip, pipe a scallop edge around the mini cake for the crust with the brown frosting.
- For the apple pie mini cake bites, finely chop the apple pie filling and spread on top of the mini cake bites.
- Next using the #5 piping tip, pipe lines in a grid pattern on top of the mini cake bites with the brown frosting.
- Next using the #10 piping tip, pipe an edge around the mini cake for the crust with the brown frosting.
- Then take a toothpick and make small lines around the crust to make it look like crimping.
- Finally pipe a dollop of white buttercream in the middle of the mini cake bite.
