Birthday Dreams ... Spongebob Cupcakes

I did it again signed up for a few cupcakes.  I just love this charity Birthday Dreams (bringing birthday's to homeless kids).  I signed up for a party for a Spongebob themed party.  I googled Spongebob cupcakes and came across a picture on Cakes 'n Stuff.  

I made spongebob, patrick and plankton cupcake toppers.

I found from watching the Food Network the Candy Clay I make is called Modeling Chocolate to many decorators.  Hmm go figure!

Modeling Clay

12oz Candy Melts

1/4 Cup light corn Syrup

Melt your Candy Melts in microwave (mine takes about 2 minutes). Stir them to become smooth and add the corn syrup.  It will become thick and form a ball.  Wrap in plastic wrap and let it sit out and dry.  Takes a few hours or over night is best. (Alexis note: I found to roll this out use a little powder sugar (like you would do with flour), also you have to kneed it a little like you would dough to make it easy to roll out).
