i used the smudge tool with a hard edge and swirled the colors of frosting around untill i got what i think looks like frosting texture.each color is on a differant layer so that there wasnt accidental over mixing.

when i did the paper of this cupcake,the smudge tool didnt work out the way i wanted it too,so i duplicated the layer and set the mode to dissolve.

i didnt like the color of the paper at all.i tried to fix it with the saturation and hue bars but i couldnt get it right.so i used the filter plastic wrap and then chrome to make the paper into a foil.
