These are so easy to do and a must for your Halloween parties. The family had great fun making these today although I still have black food dye on my hands from making the spiders - must get some gloves for this in the future.
- Fill cases just below half full so there is a gap at the top between the cake and case once cooked ensuring a smooth base once the icing is on
- With orange buttercream spread icing over cooled cakes with an offset spatula
- Starting in the centre of your cake, pipe a black spiral on top of the orange icing
- Take a cocktail stick and starting at the centre of the cake lightly drag to the edge of the cupcake. Do this at 1cm spacings to creat your spiders web
For the spiders:
- Colour some sugar paste with black food colouring (wear gloves)
- Roll a small piece in to a ball for the body
- Make 8 legs and press lightly in to the body
- With some white icing make little balls for the eyes
- Place on to the spiders web
Voila! Scrummy halloween cakes...enjoy!
