Make these spooky mummy cupcakes for Halloween this year. With our simple step-by-step picture recipe you’ll have these creative toppers made in no time. You don’t have to just pop them on top of cupcakes – add them to larger cakes or even biscuits and turn them into Haloween showstoppers!
Ingredients
- 160g grey modelling paste
- 130g black fondant
- 50g white fondant
- Coloured confetti sprinkles
- 1 batch basic cupcakes
- 1 batch basic buttercream

Step 1
The night before you need them, or longer as they keep really well in a cardboard box, mix 10g of black fondant into the white paste to make grey. Don’t mix the black in fully to give the colour a stony effect. Roll using the stone embosser and cut 12 x 68mm circles and leave them to dry on a drying sponge.

Step 2
Roll and cut 12 x 60mm Russian doll shapes from the remainder of the black fondant.

Step 3
Using the coloured confetti sprinkles, add two on each cut out for eyes and draw on pupils with the edible marker.

Step 4
Add shoes with a pin tool or cocktail stick

Step 5
Roll the white fondant to 2mm thick and cut thin strips of fondant for bandages. Add strips over the cut out making sure you leave the eye uncovered.

Step 6
Place the Mummy on the grey stone topper and arrange the bandages so it looks like a mouth.


Step 8
Your cupcakes are now ready to be served. Perfect for a spooky Halloween party!
