Froggie Cupcakes
by Justine
(Virginia)
I made these cupcakes for my daughter's first birthday party. Her name is Lily, so frogs and lilypads are a pretty common theme for her. I used:
- Green icing for the head
- 1 large marshmallow (per cupcake) cut in half for the eyes
- Small tube of glossy black icing
- Stawberry fruit roll-ups
Make the cupcakes as usual and make sure they're cool before applying the icing.
Cut the marshmallows in half (this is pretty sticky, so be warned)
Cut the fruit roll-ups into strips
Before the icing is dry, place the marshmallows onto the cupcakes and put dots on them for the pupils.
Try to get the "tongues" underneath the icing
Let them sit overnight to make sure the "eyes" settle nicely into the cupcake
Everyone thought they were pretty cute and they were easy to make! They don't look professional, but they were fun to make!
