Hiya!
Hope you are all having a fab weekend :-) It's time for another challenge over at Dream Valley and this time we want to see your Halloween creations.
I'm really enjoying making my cakes at the moment so I thought I'd make some floating ghost cupcakes for this challenge:
I started off by making the eyes with a little bit of help from Hubby :-) I piped LOTS of small dots of royal icing onto greaseproof paper while Hubby followed and added little black specks of writing icing. After we let them dry for 24 hours, we had a little box of eyes to decorate our ghosts.....
The ghosts were really easy. I just melted some white chocolate and piped little ghostie shapes onto lollipop sticks on greaseproof paper and let them set in the fridge.....
The cakes were just a normal vanilla cake mix that I topped with chocolate buttercream and then dipped into crushed malteasers. Then I just stuck the little ghosties into the top and ta da!!!! :-)
My boys really enjoyed them!
Anyway, I must be going. Make sure you pop over to Dream Valley to check out all the spooky creations by the rest of the DT.
Love 'n' hugs,

YUMMM! Your little ghosts are fabulous! I did have a giggle at the thought of you and hubby spending the evening making icing eyes ;)
These look delicious! What wonderful eyes - actually, I think the pic of the eyes looks spookier than the chocolate ghosts! A terrific idea!
