You can frost an even layer of frosting using a spatula or use a star decorating tip to cover the cake in stars. You can also use ribbon, pearls, or sprinkles for additional decorations.

How to use a star decorating tip to cover mini wedding cakes in stars
To ice mini wedding cakes, you can use a spatula to frost an even layer of frosting or use a star decorating tip to cover the cake in stars.
To use a star decorating tip, hold your bag perpendicular to your piping surface and stop squeezing just before you pull away. You can vary the shape of your star by changing the pressure and movement of your bag. Use a larger or smaller-sized tip to create larger or smaller-sized stars. To pipe shells, start by holding the bag at a 45-degree angle to your surface. Hold your piping tip in one spot and squeeze until the frosting starts to mound up on itself. Stop squeezing as you pull away. Start the next shell over the tail of the previous one. Squeeze until the frosting starts to mound over the previous shell and pull away.
If you are new to decorating, it is recommended to ice the sides of your cake first and then pipe stars on top. You can also ice the entire cake and then only pipe stars in your decoration areas.
