Jack Skellington Halloween Decorations

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

  1. Place a reference picture of Jack Skellington’s face within easy view while you work.
  2. Review a few different versions of the character’s face to find a design that will translate well to a marshmallow surface.
  3. Sketch your chosen design on a regular sheet of paper before attempting it on the treat.
  4. Start with light, thin strokes using the edible marker, since you can always darken the lines later but cannot remove excess ink.
  5. Use the fine tip of the marker to outline the features, then switch to the broader side to fill in the eye areas.
  6. 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.
  7. Complete your edible portrait of Jack Skellington on the marshmallow.
