Answer 1

it's IMPOSSIBLE it cant be done

Answer 2

You make a basic buttercream icing.  Tint some of it pale blue, some of it pale lavender.  Into a piping bag fit w/ a large star tip, load icings into it, blue on one side, lavender on the other.  They will squish together in the middle.

Then, startign on the inside of your cooled cupcake, start squeezing and making cocentric circles w/ the icing.  As you get to the outside ring, start piling the icing upwards to make a peak, stopping when it's as high as practical.  That's it!  Enjoy!

SNOW WHITE BUTTERCREAM ICING

This buttercream icing has an ideal consistency for frosting cakes. It has a firm quality making it good for wedding cake decorations and flat surface or flower nail flowers. Air dry decorations for 24 hours.

2/3 cup water

4 tablespoons meringue powder

12 cups sifted confectioners' sugar

1-1/4 cups shortening

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring

1/2 teaspoon clear vanilla flavoring

1/4 teaspoon butter flavoring

Combine water and meringue powder; whip at high speed until peaks form. Add 4 cups of sugar, one cup at a time, beating after each addition at low speed. Alternately add shortening and remainder of sugar. Add salt and flavorings; beat at low speed until smooth.

YIELD: 7 cups icing. Recipe may be doubled or cut in half; however, if cut in half, yield is only 2½ cups.
