If I could sing … I would … ding-dong, the witch is dead! (FYI … you should be happy that you can’t hear me!)
This was a first for me … cupcakes served icing side down!
On Sunday, I was looking at the Michael’s ad and saw this idea. I believe that the witch legs were made with fondant. I wanted to make it a little simpler. So this is what I can up with …
Leg ideas … Sour Punch Sticks, pretzel sticks, Pixy Stix, licorice, sugar sticks, stick cookies and tiny chocolate cigarettes …
Shoe ideas … colored Jordan almonds, small jelly beans and Starburst …
Candy melts to attach the shoe to the leg …
This what you will need …
- Cupcakes
- Icing
- Candy Melts (just a few ounces)
- Legs (whatever you choose)
- Shoes (whatever you choose)
- Witch Hats (click here for instructions)
- Black edible marker (optional)
Before we start, I want to explain that my goal was to make this a very quick and easy project. I just loved the idea of the witch under the cupcake! Of course you could spend more time than I did and make it “perfect”.
Here are the items that I chose to use for legs and shoes … I did cut one Starburst and made 2 shoes from it …
Dip the legs in candy melts to create “socks” …
Attach the shoes …
Frost your cupcakes however you want … remember nobody will see the tops! Assemble the legs …
Turn the cupcakes icing side down on top of the legs and place a hat nearby …
I did pull out the edible marker and add some details …
P. S. If you like the doilies that I used, don’t forget to enter the GIVEAWAY!
Comments are always appreciated …
