What You’ll Need
Cupcakes, baked from your favorite recipe
White frosting, store-bought or from your favorite recipe
Neon green food coloring
Mint-flavored chewable candies (found packaged in rolls)
Green apple sour belts
Green apple sour straws, cut into 2″ pieces
Black decorator gel icing
Kitchen shears, or a small leaf shaped fondant cutter
How To Make It
1 First, mix up a batch of alien green icing by adding few drops of neon green food coloring to your favorite white icing.
2 Prepare your aliens’ ears. Cut ears, shaped like teardrops, from green apple belts. A pair of kitchen shears works well, or use a small leaf shaped fondant cutter. You will need 2 ears for each cupcake.
3 Frost cupcakes and insert a 2″ sour straw antenna. Press your ears into the sides of the cupcake.
4 Line up three mint-flavored, chewable candies as eyes, and dot with black gel icing for pupils.
5 Give your aliens an awed expression by drawing on a circle for a mouth with black gel icing.
