How to make it

How to make it

  1. Bake the cupcakes and allow to cool.
  2. Divide the sugar paste into five equal pieces and knead one food colour into each.
  3. Dust a surface with icing sugar, roll out sugar paste 2mm thick and then cut out circles the same size as the cakes with a round cutter.
  4. Cut a triangle into the circle. Coat the top of each cake with 'soft peak' brown icing and stick the circle on.
  5. Fill a piping bag with 'soft peak' brown icing. Pipe a fine line around the edge of the circle and then large dots in the centre.
  6. Roll a small amount of brown sugar paste into a head and stick to the front of the cake with icing.
  7. Finish off by making 'eye' holes with a cocktail stick.
