Notes

If you would like, you can add the contents of two (of the five) earl grey tea bags to batter to have specks of tea leaves throughout the cupcakes. Keep in mind that the honey adds sweetness to the buttercream, so do not add more powdered sugar than is written until after you have added the honey and tasted it. If the buttercream is too soft to pipe, place in the fridge to firm up.
