I'm behind posting some cakes a few months back. I signed up for for a Lego themed party for Birthday Dreams (bringing birthday's to homeless kids). I had a lego man and brick models left over from Cole's party several years back. Some modeling chocolate and silicone molds and bam cupcake toppers!
What you Need:
Modeling Chocolate in yellow, orange, green, red, white, purple and blue (See Recipe at the bottom)
Lego Man Silicone Mold

Lego Man Silicone Mold
Lego brick Silicone Mold
Frosted Cupcakes
I had modeling chocolate in several different colors made up before from previous projects. I took yellow and filled the head part of the mold. I then took blue and filled in the pant part of the mold. I then took different colors to make the shirts. I took a few different colors and made bricks in the silicone mold. I was in a hurry this time so I popped the molds into the freezer to firm them up quickly. I then popped them out, the best part of a silicone mold is it's flexible. I then put the toppers on top of frosted cupcakes.
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).
