Ingredients

  • Cupcakes
  • Vanilla frosting
  • Chocolate Ganache/chocolate frosting*
  • Toothpicks

Instructions

  • To make spiderweb cupcakes, frost the cupcake with vanilla frosting using a butter knife or offset spatula.
  • Next, place the chocolate ganache or chocolate frosting in a piping bag.
  • Snip a small opening at the bottom of the piping bag (maybe 3 mm in length) and pipe 3-6 circles onto the cupcake. You could also just pipe a spiral.
  • Using a toothpick, draw lines from the innermost circle to the outer circle to create a spider-web effect.

Notes

  • *Chocolate ganache consists of 100 g (4 oz) chocolate combined with 6 tbsp of boiling hot heavy cream- this is enough for maybe 24 cupcakes. You can also use chocolate frosting, just make sure that the frosting isn’t too thick, as this will make it difficult to create the web effect.
  • You don’t need to use vanilla and chocolate- I found that these were the easiest options, but you can totally get creative with colors!
