-
make cake mix according to box directions.
or make from scratch i was not that ambitious at 2 am :/
Preheat oven to the time indicated on box.
line cupcake tin with liners (i used pastel colors cus they matched my wings.) -
fill liners 2/3rds the way full so they dont over flow the liners.
bake and let cool. -
while cakes are cooling.
Place melts into ziplock bags -
place in coffee mug.
DO NOT CLOSE TOP OF BAGGIE!!!!!!.
it will explode all over your microwave and not to mention it is highly dangerous!!!!! -
put in microwave for 30 sec incramemts until fully melted.
do the same for dark chocolate. -
draw wing template with black marker on paper.
cut wax paper or parchment paper to fit templates. -
reenforce corner of both ziplocks with scotch tape.
then cut small hole off of the corner you just reenforced -
Follow out line with dark chocolate.
-
Fill in with white chocolate.
spread out and swirl with skewer. -
sprinkle with sprinkles!
-
place on tray and put in fridge.
when i made them it was 94 degrees out and despite my fan it wouldnt set with out putting them in the fridge! -
die 3/4 of a can or vanilla frosting blue. (or what ever color you want i just chose blue for the sky)
frost all the cupcakes. -
cut a melt a way in half and place on either side of the cake. to hold up wing.
you could use m & m's too. -
peel wax paper off of wings.
place on wings. -
Die remaining frosting black.
place in ziplock bag.
cut corner.
pipe in a circular motion down the center for body and then at the top for anntenna.
(i originally made chocolate antenna but it was so hot my hands kept melting them when i tried to put them on! sad. but they are still cute!!!!!) -
EAT!!!!!!!!!
or arrange with the flower cupcakes that i am going to post tomorrow!
