In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how to create a tasty looking cupcake inside of Cinema 4D. We will start out by modeling the cupcake wrapper, muffin bit, and the frosting! Then I’ll show you how you can animate the cupcake getting frosted by using the Mograph Module. If you have any questions, be sure to hit me in the comments below! Have fun and if you make something with this technique, be sure to share it! Enjoy!

Hello E.J . thanks for this brilliant tutorial. Can you please explain how you made scene Elements? I am following your tutorial but can`t reach your background and lighting. thanks.
I wrote a comment here. Now I checked here to see if there is an answer. but the comment is deleted!
Hey there! Some comments got lost in the website update! Apologies!
YES! This was exactly what I was looking to learn! Thank you so much EJ!
hi ej thank you for being amazing. can you please have screen grabs of the texture settings for all your tutorials? you are amazing at lighting and texturing, everyone of your tutorial deserves a separate video on lighting and texturing.
Hello Ej, thanks for your tutorials! they are great, I just started learning Cinema 4D and I am following all of your videos, I modeled the muffin and rendered it on keyshot as I am still new…
it doesnt move… yet! haha

Thanks from Spain! :)
Woo hoo that is awesome Tony! Thank you for sharing!
Hi EJ, thank so much for your tutorial, really nice. But i’m pretty bad in textures so I can’t make a beautiful muffin and wrapper like you. Can we have the textures from your tutorial please ? ='(
Hey EJ,
I’m brand new to C4d and absolutely hooked on your tutorials. They are absolutely essential learning for anyone like me coming from traditional graphic design to motion.
I followed this tutorial and it looks great, but when I render, I still get a fairly blocky polygon shape on the muffin section (everything else if fine). It looks smooth in the build but absolutely terrible when outputted.
I have the cube in a Subdivision surface… I have also tried putting a Phong tag on both the cube and the Subdivision surface but nothing works.
Any ideas?
Thanking you in advance!
Jenny
Thanks! I hope to do some more tutorials and cover the lighting and texturing a bit more in depth!
Hey Jenny! Really appreciate your comment and I’m glad that you find my tutorials helpful!!! So the one thing that may be the issue is in the Subdivison Surface you have 2 quality settings, one for Viewport and one for Render. Be sure that the Render subdivisions is set to 3 or higher and that should solve the blockiness!
EJ,
You’re a genius.
Thank you so much, such a simple fix!
Your the King of C4d.
Jen
Glad I could help! :)
