Minecraft Cupcakes "Creeper"


Icing:
White icing or cream cheese icing
Add a drop of green food dye and mix
Continue to add dye until nice and green

Coating Cake:
Apply your first crumb coat of green icing. Refrigerate up to 30 min or until the coat is firm
Repeat this two more times equaling 3 coatings of icing.
Apply our final coating of icing as evenly as possible to have a 1/4 inch thickness
Refrigerate your iced cake again
Cut:
Cut off the edges of the cake to make sharp corners
Using a knife and a ruler. Measure out and cut 2 inch squares.
Decorate:
Print and cut out a pixel template on a card
Tip: Use tin foil to keep the card template from getting too soaked in dye.
Hold your pixel template over one square cake and lightly spray a mist on top using green 'color mist'
When the mist settles. turn your template 90 degrees and spray a light mist again.
This will give your pixels two shades.
Face:
Using a template place it over the fruit leather and cut out Creeper eyes and mouth
Place them on pixel sprayed square cupcakes

  9. I borrowed your amazing cakes idea for my daughter's birthday Minecraft LAN party yesterday and they were a big hit. We used a black sugar sheet rather than fruit leather and had green dyed/white cake in addition to chocolate. Thanks so much for putting this up.
