These red, white and blueberry cupcakes with rum icing can be modified to fit your time and taste. For the buttercream frosting we used imitation rum, but you can substitute imitation vanilla if the rum is too sweet. To decorate the cupcakes we used the Wilton 12-Piece Cupcake Decorating Set. But, if you need to save time, you can use a knife to frost them and put a layer of blueberries across them.
