3 Bake 18 to 23 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely.
4 In large bowl, beat frosting ingredients with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Spoon into decorating bag with large star tip (#5). Pipe onto cupcakes; sprinkle with glitter and orange peel. Store loosely covered in refrigerator.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

You can find edible glitter and sparkling sugars at some craft stores and online baking supply stores.

If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

These were FANTASTIC!! I had to make cupcakes for a bachelorette party and decided to go with these and the Pink Champagne Cupcakes. They were both a total hit. The bride-to-be loved them so much, she decided to change the flavor of her wedding cake to these two recipes!!! Thanks for a great recipe!!

These were yummy! I added 3 heaping spoonfuls of plain yogurt to the batter and they turned out very moist.

I switched the orange juice to the 3/4 cup and the champagne to the 1/2 cup and it tasted way more like a mimosa that way the orange didn't over power the taste.
