Method
Place the Macphie Celebration Cake Mix and margarine into a machine bowl fitted with a paddle and mix for 1 minute on slow speed.
Add 300 g of the water and mix for 1 minute on slow speed, then scrape down. Mix for a further 4 minutes on middle speed, then add the remaining 175 g water and mix for a final 2 minutes on slow speed.
Deposit 35 g into lined paper cases and bake at 180°C for 25-30 minutes.
Once the cupcakes are cool, pipe large swirls on top of 12 cupcakes with Macphie Vanilla Frosting.
Blend Macphie Vanilla Frosting with the colours to make up (pipe red frosting onto 6 cupcakes to make the hat and peach onto 5 for the face).
Arrange into a Santa formation, cut out circles from black pin ice for the eyes and pipe on a small white bulb for the pupils.
