Learn how to create Jack Skellington faces on marshmallows using an edible marker, paper towels or wax paper, and a reference image. The process involves sketching a design, practicing with thin lines, and adjusting your technique based on the marshmallow's texture to achieve the perfect Halloween treat.
Ingredients
Directions
- Place a reference picture of Jack Skellington’s face within easy view while you work.
- Review a few different versions of the character’s face to find a design that will translate well to a marshmallow surface.
- Sketch your chosen design on a regular sheet of paper before attempting it on the treat.
- Start with light, thin strokes using the edible marker, since you can always darken the lines later but cannot remove excess ink.
- Use the fine tip of the marker to outline the features, then switch to the broader side to fill in the eye areas.
- If the ink appears to skip or drag, rotate the marshmallow and try drawing in the opposite direction, as the surface texture may accept the ink better from a different angle.
- Complete your edible portrait of Jack Skellington on the marshmallow.
