    Pull and peal your Twizzlers, so you have individual strands of candy to work with.

    Cut out three sizes of strips; for the “board” the Os and the Xs. Measure your cupcake surface to estimate the size of your pieces.

    To form the Xs place one piece of candy onto another and push them together at center. To form the Os take one strip and bend it to form an O shape pressing seams together. The Os are a little tricky but just keep pressing around the seam and eventually they’ll stick. Place a board onto each frosted cupcake and get ready to play!
