So here are some pretty awesome cupcakes I made for work for Halloween.
Everything on them I made.
And here's the decorating directions.
You will need:
Starburst Candies
Milk Arrowroot Biscuits
Black Icing (I used Wilton Writing Gel)
Green Buttercream Icing
Grey Icing (with a small amount of darker grey set aside)
Toothpicks
Red Gel Food Colouring (Wilton - for the blood)
Oreo cookies (crushed)
Make light grey icing to a thin slightly runny consistancy.
Dip 3/4 of each biscuit into grey set aside, take a toothpick, dip into darker grey icing and swirl through iced biscuit to create stone look. Leave aside to set. Write on "gravestones" when icing is set.
Take 1 pink Starburst, warm in the microwave for approx 5-10 seconds until pliable. Shape into arm/hand - insert toothpick into arm, set aside to firm. Paint on spots of red gel for blood.
Take 2 orange Starburst, warm, roll together and shape into pumpkin, using toothpick to mark segments - top with small amount of green icing for stalk.
Using a grass tip, top cupcakes with green icing. Insert un-iced end of biscuit into cupcake, sprinkle cookie crumbs in front of biscuit and insert hands or pumpkins.
