Homemade Elmo Cupcakes

These Elmo Cupcakes were really easy to make! I made red buttercream frosting and used the Wilton grass tip (#233) for Elmo's furry face. I used pre-made, store bought eyes made from sugar for Elmo's eyes. I used a Wilton round tip (#12) to pipe an oval mound for Elmo's nose.

For Elmo's mouth, I drew a template using paper. Once I figured the correct size, shape, etc., I traced the paper template onto wax paper. I then piped melted chocolate onto the wax paper. It didn't take long to set. The mouths came off from the wax paper really easily. I added the mouth and voila.....Elmo!

These Elmo cupcakes look wonderful. These are the best looking ones I have seen. My daughter is turning 2 the end of the month and she loves Elmo. These will be great! Thanks for the idea. She will love them.

These are the best Elmo cupcakes I have seen. Great job! My grandson is turning 2 and my daughter is having an Elmo birthday. These are going to be great. The chocolate mouth just "makes" it.

Thanks for the idea!
