Introduction: Haunted Pumpkin Patch Ghost Cupcakes!
Haunted Pumpkin Patch Ghost cupcakes!
Totally adorable fondant ghosts on a grassy hill!
Step 1:
You will need some cupcakes!
We made some...but even store bought would work great!
You'll also need:
coconut flakes
green food coloring
marshmallow fondant
dum-dums
black food coloring
paint brush or stylus
Pumpkin candy
Take some coconut flakes...drop a few drops of green
food coloring into the flakes and stir.
Soon they will become the perfect shade of green!
Step 2: Roll in the Grass!
Roll the cupcakes in the coconut flakes to cover the tops!
Just like grass!
You could crush Oreo and make a little dirt hill or graveyard.
Step 3: Ghost Time!
Now you will need some marshmallow fondant
Roll out a 1/4" thick 4 inch circle...
Take the dum-dum and drape the circle of fondant over the top of it.
Just like a ghost sheet!
Ruffle the fondant to drape nicely.
Lay on some parchment paper and let the fondant dry.
Step 4: Face Time!
After a few hours,
time to paint on the faces!
Put a small drop of black food coloring on a paper plate.
You can even practice painting the faces on the plate!
I chose a Kawaii face!
Winked, blinked, or squinted eyes and a big howling mouth!
Step 5: Commence Haunting!
Stick the ghost right into the cupcake!
Add a candy pumpkin!
