Halloween Cupcake Picks. Cute and Scary!
Ingredients
- RTR icing white (also known as fondant/plastic icing)
- Round lollipops
- Red cake gel
- Black food colour
- Toy axes
- Cupcakes baked in standard black baking cups
- Light coloured frosting
- empty egg carton
Method
- Pierce small holes in the bottom of an egg carton, this will be your “stand” for drying your ghosts.
- Unwrap lollipops, and roll out your RTR white icing unit 2-3mm thick, cut circles out with a cookie cutter and drape over lollipops.
- Stand you lollipops in your egg carton stand whilst you make the eyes.
- Colour a small amount of white RTR black.
- Roll small balls of white RTR icing (eyes) and gently press onto ghosts, roll and even smaller balls of black and press into position on the white eyes.
- Let dry.
- Attach axes with small balls of white RTR on the back of the ghosts, let dry.
- Push your finished ghosts into the frosted cupcakes and take a tube of red cake gel to make the "blood" splashes. Don't forget to put a bit on the blades of the axes. BOO!
Notes & Tips
Find toy axes at toy/$2 stores. Want longer ghosts? Use a larger size round cutter for the RTR icing. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
