Halloween Spider Web Cupcakes
Spider Web Cupcakes Tutorial
Supplies:
*Frosted cupcakes
*Decorating gel (I used Wilton's Sparkle Gel in black)
*Toothpick
*Halloween cupcake wrapper cut out (optional) - mine is from the Silhouette store
1. Frost your cupcakes. I used a simple cream cheese frosting. Just a note--I added a little red and yellow food coloring to my cake batter to make the cupcakes orange!
2. Using your decorating gel (I found my sparkle gel on sale at Joann this week!), draw concentric circles on the top of your cupcake. Three to four circles are plenty. Don't worry if they're not perfect--you're going to mess them up in the next step!
3. Drag the end of a toothpick from the center to the edge of the cupcake, about six times around the circle. This will create a "web."
4. I cut the bottom off a plastic spider ring and stuck it on top. You could also leave the ring on it and press the ring down into the cupcake so the recipient would have a little Halloween favor. To make your spider sparkly like it's web, paint a little orange or black Stickles glitter glue on top and let it dry completely.
5. I cut Halloween cupcake wrappers with my Silhouette machine and slipped each cupcake into one. Love this scull design!
These must be the creepiest cupcakes in town!
