Birthday Dreams ... SeaHawk Cupcakes

Next cupcake I signed up for was a SeaHawk's themed party.  For non football people like me the SeaHawk's is a football team here in Seattle that won the SuperBowl.  I just love this charity Birthday Dreams (bringing birthday's to homeless kids). 


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).





What you Need:
Frosted Cupcakes (I use my Sturdy Buttercream Frosting)
White Modeling Chocolate
Brown Modeling Chocolate
Black Modeling Chocolate
Blue Modeling Chocolate
Green Modeling Chocolate
Football Cutter
Circle Cutter
Number Mold

Cut a circle with a circle cutter Blue and Green.  On the Blue I added the Number 12 (Seattle Fans are known as the 12th man). On the Green I added SEA for Seattle.  I cut out brown footballs and added white for the laces.  This was on of the quickest cupcakes I've done so far.  I love that they are simple but fit perfect with the SeaHawk themes.


Thanks for Stopping by!
