Ghoul Cupcakes made for charity .. Perfect for Halloween also (Nightmare Before Christmas)

The charity Birthday Dreams (bring birthday's to homeless kids) that I bake for asked for a Ghoul design. I did some searching and a thought this would be a fun design to make Nightmare Before Christmas themed. This looked perfect for the ghoul themed requested.


What you Need:
Modeling Chocolate in White and Black (See Recipe at the bottom)
Circle cookie Cutter
Small Oval Cookie Cutter 
Black Food Marker
Frosted Cupcakes

I made white modeling chocolate and then rolled it out and cut out circles. I rolled out some black modeling chocolate to make the eyes. I made a few that I left in the oval shape, a few I took the oval cutter and cut off some of the top to make different eyes. I took a black food marker to make the mouths and nose marks. I still have not found a perfect food marker to make clear marks on modeling chocolate. Let me know if you have one. I then put the toppers on top of frosted cupcakes.

Modeling Chocolate
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).
