Transport, then decorate

Why worry about ruining your cupcake design when you can decorate your cupcakes after you transport them? Simply cool your cupcakes in the tray, cover them in foil, then decorate once you have arrived at your gathering. To prevent the cupcakes from slipping in your car, try placing a yoga mat under the tray.
