Vampire bat cupcakes for Halloween
Fruit roll-ups are the edible wings on this creepy-yet-cute vampire bat. Make a whole colony of these cupcakes for your Halloween party!
What You Need: 1 cupcake (baked and cooled); frosting tinted purple (you can mix red and blue food coloring); 2 purple or black gumdrops; 2 red M&Ms; 2 white candies such as Good & Plenty or Tic Tacs; red fruit rolls.
How to Make It: Frost cupcake and before it gets too firm, stick about a 4-inch length of fruit roll (we used Fruit by the Foot) on left and right side for wings. You could cut it into a more-authentic wing shape if you’d like. Add gumdrops for ears, M&Ms for blood-red eyes and white candies for fangs and you’re ready to scare your guests!
