This is a really simple way to make cupcake that look like your child's
favorite Sesame Street character, Elmo. Just make your favorite brand of
cake mix in a cupcake pan. After the cupcakes cool, frost them with
white icing. Spray the white cupcakes with red food coloring highlights
(Note: They will seem orange at first, but it will turn to a nice red
after a few moments.) I like this icing , because it doesn't have a
strong "red" flavor. Print out a picture of Elmo's head on your printer,
and then cut it out. I separated the nose and eyes from the rest of the
head so that I could get the right proportions. I used a tube of
Wilton's Orange decorating icing for the nose, and a tube of Wilton's
Black decorating icing for Elmo's mouth and pupils. I used vanilla icing for his eyes.
