Ingredients

Cupcakes Ingredients

  • 24 cupcakes of choice (I prepared 1 box red velvet cake mix)
  • 1 tub white frosting
  • 48 large candy eyes

Decorating Equipment

Instructions

  • Bake cupcakes in cupcake liners, according to package directions. (Or bake homemade cupcakes of choice.) Allow to cool completely.
  • Add white frosting into a decorating bag with a wide, flat petal piping tip. (I used Wilton tip #104.)
  • Glue large candy eyes onto each cupcake using a dot of icing as glue, or spread icing onto backs of candy eyes so they’ll stick to the cupcake.
  • Pipe stripes of white frosting horizontally across the cupcake, creating mummy ‘wrapping’ around the eyes. (It looks nice if you alternate the angles of your lines a bit to make the wrapping look layered!)
  • Repeat until all mummy cupcakes are decorated.
