Ingredients Needed to Make Poop Emoji Cupcakes with Homemade Chocolate Buttercream
To make these adorable poop emoji cupcakes, you will need the following ingredients:

- Nutella or hazelnut spread
- Softened butter
- Icing sugar
- Milk
- Cocoa powder
- White fondant
- Black fondant
- Red fondant
Tools Needed to Make Poop Emoji Cupcakes with Nutella Filling
You will also need the following items:
- Frosting bag
- Wilton tip #12
- Spoon (for the Nutella)
- Paring knife
How to Decorate Poop Emoji Cupcakes
No fancy tools or know-how here, you just gotta use a piping bag and Wilton tip to create the frosting in just the right way here, pretty much starting with a larger circle at the base and building up cone-shaped upward to the top. Pretty easy, as is the recipe for the homemade chocolate buttercream frosting. When I said this recipe was easy, I meant it!
How to Make Poop Emoji Cupcakes
Allow your vanilla cupcakes to cool completely before decorating on a wire rack.
Using a paring knife, cut out the center top of each cupcake and remove. Save the tops – you’ll need them to top your cupcake after the next step.
Fill each cupcake with a tablespoon of Nutella or hazelnut spread.
Top with the piece of cupcake you just trimmed off.
In a medium-size bowl, beat together butter, icing sugar, milk and cocoa powder to make your buttercream. It is best to use an electric mixer for this. Beat the ingredients on slow and gradually increase to high. Once the buttercream has formed, scoop into a piping bag using Wilton tip #12 and frost each cupcake.
Form twenty-four (24) small ovals with your white fondant. Shape twenty-four (24) tiny black circles with your black fondant and place one on each white fondant. These will be your poops’ eyes. Form twelve quarter-inch spheres from your white fondant. Form them into ovals and then give them to pointed ends. These will act as your poops’ smile.
Place two eyes on each frosted cupcake. Place one smile on each frosted cupcake.
Make fondant hearts out of your red fondant. Place two or three hearts on each cupcake. Serve and enjoy! Aren’t these adorable and amazing?
