These cupcakes are great for fans of dinosaurs. Easy to make, fun to eat.
Ingredients:
1. 12 vanilla cupcakes (I use lemon flavor cupcakes) or any flavor of your choice
2. Vanilla frosting
3. Green, yellow, black, ivory and white fondants
4. Sugar glue or sugar syrup
5. Piping jelly
6. Strawberry jam
7. Cookie cutter 68mm (2.67 inches)
8. Green color paper lines
Method:
1. Line a 12-hole standard muffin tin with green paper liners. Bake a batch of cupcakes following instructions on the cupcake box. once bake, cool completely. Level cupcakes with serrated knife to make flat using paper liners as guidance.
2. Spread small amount of vanilla frosting; cut out circles of green and ivory color fondants same size as the cupcakes, using cookie cutter, then attach to the cupcakes.
3. To make claws: roll out three sausages; roll one end slightly thinner; then flatten the other end. If you like make some marks with palette knife. Shape three small claws out using black fondant. Attach to the cupcake with edible sugar glue. Apply small amount of piping jelly or use food coloring to create texture and realistic look.
4. To make eye cupcakes: make a ball of green fondant and make indent in the middle; then make a smaller ball of yellow fondant, stick into eye socket and flatten slightly with palm of your hand Add black fondant for the pupil. Stick to the cupcake using edible glue, then add an eyelid using green fondant.
5. To make head cupcake: make the shape of the dinosaur's face out of green fondant, make indentations for the eyes, then add small balls of yellow fondant with black slithers in the center. Cut out little teeth from white color fondant and spiky spine from green fondant. Then make the claws as before but much smaller. Attach together and stick to the cupcake with edible glue. If you like brush clear piping jelly over the eyes. Spoon strawberry jam over the claws and teeth.
