The exact list of tools needed, the step-by-step instructions for how to make each buttercream flower, and how to assemble the cupcake bouquet can be found here on Wilton. This project has really impressive results, but is not as difficult as you might think.

The two-toned rose comes out beautifully, and is actually the easiest flower to make in the bouquet of cupcakes.
