My son, he who inspired the Clone Trooper Cupcakes, Dragon Cake, and Perry the Platypus Cake, is obsessed with Angry Birds. Well, he’s really obsessed with about a dozen games on the iPhone or Android when we’ll let him play them — and he got to play a lot while we were on vacation in Mexico. And we had a 4 hour delay so I played my share of Angry Birds, too. Anyway. So here they are in cupcake form (here are a bunch of other Angry Birds creations, too). Lots of fun to make, and quite tasty, too!
Wanna make them yourself? They really aren’t that hard. But I will warn you, they are definitely time consuming!
OH YEAH! Please go vote for these in the instructables cupcake contest!
Basically, on top of your standard iced cupcakes, you place a bird. The birds (and pigs) are made out of donut holes covered in marshmallow fondant, (the smaller birds are wrapped up mints or whoppers or similar). It’s like playing with playdoh, and my 6 year old actually helped me make one of the set of 3 little birds (those are easier to make because with a hard center, you don’t have to be as careful while wrapping them). Really, this is not that hard to do, it does take a little time and patience though, especially to kneed all those different colors into your fondant!
