Recipe

  1. 1

    Make 6 boy body pops with red bodies. Set aside to dry.

  2. 2

    Prepare the black candy melts in the plastic bowl according to the instructions on the packet.

  3. Step 3 3

    Dip Flapjackson’s head into the melts to create his hair. You can use a toothpick to spread the melts into place. Don’t forget to add his signature curl at the front! Repeat for the remaining pops and set aside to dry.

  4. 4

    While you’re waiting for Flapjackson’s hair to dry, make his mirror shades. Knead the gum tragacanth into the sugarpaste to make it easier to shape. Take a pea-sized amount, flatten it down and shape it into shades by hand or with a small, sharp knife. Repeat for each pop.

  5. 5

    Mix a small amount of silver lustre dust with a few drops of rejuvenator spirit and paint all six pairs of aviator shades. Set aside to dry.

  6. Step 6 6

    Once dry, fix each pair of shades into place with some of the leftover candy melts.

  7. Step 7 7

    Mix a small amount of pink blossom tint with a few drops of rejuvenator spirit and, with a fine brush, paint lips onto each pop. Do the same for the collar in black and the button detailing in gold. Set aside to dry completely in a polystyrene block.
