Spider-Man Cupcakes
These cupcakes will have your spidey senses tingling! They bright, colorful, and perfect for any size super hero. They’re also very easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 box of cake mix – Funfetti Vibrant Aqua Blue Cake Mix or you can use a box of white cake mix and dye it blue
- 2 Eggs
- 2/3 Cup of Water
- 1/3 Cup of Vegetable Oil
- White Icing
- Red Food Dye
- Black Gel Icing
Start by mixing your cake mix with water, vegetable oil and eggs according to the directions on the cake mix.
Once the mix is complete transfer to cupcake pan. I like using cup cake liners because it limits the mess. Pour the cupcake mix into the cupcake pan, making sure not to fill all the way to the top.
Bake the cupcakes for 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Then let the cupcakes cool.
Mix white frosting with a few drops of the red food dye. Scoop the red icing into an icing bag or a ziploc bag. I cut the end of the bag to frost the top of the cupcakes but you can also use a Wilton tip. Then frost each cupcake with the icing. Use the black icing gel to create a spider web by drawing 3 circles on top and then about 8 lines across the circles.
