1 Jumbo Chocolate Cupcake, decorated to look like Elmo
One of our friends sent Rich a text to ask if we would be able to make a jumbo cupcake that looked like Elmo...of course we love making Elmo! But the jumbo cupcake? Yikes, the last one we made, it was a disaster and I almost had a nervous breakdown.
However piping Elmo's 'fur' uses a different method so I decided to go for it!
As the cupcake baked, I made the frostings and dyed it red. Deciding what to use for the smile was easy Oreo cookies! For the eyes, jumbo marshmallows did the trick and the nose was made from orange frosting :)
As the cupcake was frosted to get it to 'stick' together, the inside was piped with chocolate buttercream(and a handful of chocolate chips ;) then all the fur was piped, all the facial features attached and away he went!
Frank was awesome and came to pick up the cupcake too, as it was a crazy weekend!
Happy 2nd Birthday Brendan! Hope you enjoyed your chocolate cupcake!
