This recipe produces 6 jars, takes 20 minutes to make with 15 minutes wait time 

You will need 
• 12 Carrot Cupcakes (baked or store brought) 
• 16 Ounces White Buttercream https://a.co/d/ahfmoh2 
• 1 Cup of Raw or Toasted Pecans https://a.co/d/2sQzyTR

• Cake Jars https://a.co/d/gC7K1ef 
• Microwave safe bowls 
• Medium Size Mixing Bowl 
• Spatula 
• Parchment Paper 

Before beginning, if you have raw pecans toast them by putting them in the oven on 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. Once the pecans are cool chop them in to small pieces and set them aside for later. 

First, place the green chocolate melts in a microwave safe bowl, heat them in 30 intervals until the chocolate is liquid and smooth. 

Dip the opening of the jar into the chocolate. Let the excess drip off the jar and then turn the jar upright and tap the bottom 1-3 times so the green chocolate creates a drip effect. 

Sprinkle some of the pecans on the green chocolate and let it set for 8-10 minutes. Do this for each jar. 

Place the remaining green chocolate in a piping bag, secure the ends and cut a small hole on the tip.(you may have to heat the chocolate again for 30 seconds-1 minute) 

On a sheet of parchment paper, create carrot fronds by piping a 2-2 1/2 inch straight vertical line 

Then pipe 2- 3 short horizontal lines coming from the original line. Let them sit 5-8 minutes to solidify. 

Put your buttercream in a mixing bowl, add 3 drops of orange gel color to the buttercream and mx until it’s all completely orange. Then put the buttercream in a piping bag and secure the end. Cut a medium size hole in the tip. 

Grab your jars, cupcakes, orange buttercream, pecans, carrot fronds and put them all in one place to make the jars easier to assemble. 

Place an unwrapped cupcake in a jar, then pipe some of the buttercream on top of the the cupcake. 

Sprinkle some of the toasted pecans on the buttercream. Add another unwrapped cupcake in the jar, then add more pecans on top of the second cupcake. 

Now pipe the buttercream in swirl, on top of the pecans and cupcake. Place the frond in the top of the buttercream to complete the carrot. Repeat the steps above for each Jar. 

Serve and Enjoy! Note: -To store these jars you can place the tops on them and place them in the fridge for up to 4 days. -This recipe is created using 12 regular size cupcakes, if you have jumbo cupcakes you can just break them in half instead of using 2 cupcakes per jar. -This recipe can be substituted with cream cheese frosting to add layers of flavor.
