Fruit Roll-Up Cupcakes

Rose made from one full strip of "Strawberry Fruit Roll-Up". (Note. Fruit by the foot was too gooey to use.) One strip per rose. Unwind roll all the way, and start making bud of rose with the tight end (very end) of the strip. Working backward on the strip gives better results.

Candy Tacos

Shells = mixture of yellow/white chocolate (mostly yellow, add a few whites), mix in black colored sugar. I used a circle drawn on parchment paper. Thin layer, as it begins to set, I proped it up (set in narrow tupperware, etc.). Then add second or third layer with plastic spoon to make it sturdy. Use freezer to help with cooling time. Meat = brownie crumbs. Lettuce = thinly sliced "apple belts" (found in asst. candy isle at Vons grocery store). Cheese = orange/yellow colored marshmallow fondant, actually grated with cheese grater. Tomotoes = sliced cherry licorice found at RiteAid. Olives = I picked out the darkest colored cherrios in the "Chocolate Cherrios" cereal box.

Chocolate And Pink Roses

Covered in poured chocolate ganache. Fresh pink roses. Pink chocolate plaque.

Giant Cupcake

Used the BigTop Cupcake silicon mold. Bottom made with chocolate melts, brushed on about 3-4 layers of chocolate (about 1 bag). For top, I baked a bottom layer, then sculpted it. The actual top mold just seemed too triangular. I had better luck sculpting the top.
