Step 3: A Head Is Born

Place a large marshmallow in the middle of the cupcake.

I used a little icing to keep it in place.

Step 4: Thick Green Skin

Mix some icing sugar and water till you have a mixture consistent with syrup.

Add green food coloring till you find your desired color

Step 5: Pour It On

Pour the icing over the marshmallows till fully coated

Once the icing is almost hard, decorate with your candy.

I molded the eyes with my fingers and just cut pieces to size for the antennas
