Did you try lining fabric or felt behind the korkers?

There is a thread ( a couple actually) that explain different ways to do this. Just search for cupcake or icing, then you'll find them!

I think it is cute style-wise. I'd change the colors, but I like the overall look

The easiest way to make a cupcake clips base is to simply draw the shape and cut it out with ribbon.

what I do is just take a piece of 1.5" brown ribbon about 4 inches long.
Next I take some fabri-tac and place the glue on one side on the ribbon.
Then I fold over the ribbon and glue the two sides together so that the base
will be thicker to support the cupcake top. Then I just cut out the shape and heat seal the edges.

here is a sample
