Turn ordinary cupcakes into a spooky graveyard scene with chocolate dirt, gummy worms, and candy pumpkins. Decorate each candy pumpkin with a RIP message using black gel. Perfect for Halloween parties or a fun baking project.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Bake the cupcakes following the instructions on the chocolate cake mix box. Allow them to reach room temperature before decorating.
  2. Spread a layer of chocolate frosting over each cooled cupcake.
  3. Evenly distribute the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies over the frosted tops to mimic dark soil.
  4. Push one gummy worm partially into the center of each cupcake so it appears to be crawling out.
  5. Set a candy pumpkin on top of each cupcake to resemble a tiny tombstone.
  6. Using the black decorating gel, draw the letters 'RIP' onto each candy pumpkin.
