Along came the Spiders
Friday, October 23, 2009 at 9:05AM Where to begin?
With Halloween just around the corner (or the October 31st to be exact), I just had to make my first post "Along came the Spiders" a quick and easy decorating idea for Halloween cupcakes. Ideal for an adult Halloween party, but equally a hit with the kids.
Want to recreate the look? Start with chocolate or vanilla cupcakes, standard sized not "muffin" sized as you need to use these laser cut web cupcake wrappers
available from cake decorating and stationery stores to go around the cakes.
Lightly frost the cupcakes with your choice of frosting, wrap the cakes with cupcake wrappers, top the cakes with *Vanilla Persian Fairy Floss add a rubber spider and voilà!
As an optional extra and to make your cakes shimmer, crush and sprinkle white edible cake glitter or use white disco glitter over the top.
*Persian Fairy Floss dissolves quickly once in contact with air, top with the fairy floss no more than an hour before serving.
For another quick and creepy cupcake idea how about gothic cockroach cupcakes...
