Now it's time to fight with the candy melts. I used the technique Make.Bake.Celebrate shows on her blog.

Melting Candy Melts :

Take a piece of cling wrap and put some candy melts in it. Wrap up the candy melts. Picture 2 Slowly melt in the microwave, take it out and squeeze it to mush them up. Take a zip lock bag and make a snip in the corner, stick in the inside decorating coupler. Picture 3 Take your melted candy melts in your cling wrap and thread it through the coupler. Snip off the excess cling wrap that is sticking out the bag/coupler. Picture 4 Put on your tip and then screw the outside coupler on. Picture 5 Twist the end and you are ready to make your skeletons.

Lay out a piece of wax paper. If you have a hard time drawing, you can print off skeleton pictures and put that under the wax paper. Draw out your pieces.

Skulls :

Use your smaller tip (example #2). Draw the outline of the skull, then draw two big circles on the inside where the eye sockets are. Fill in the rest while leaving just a bit open for the mouth near the base of the skull. Once you have the skull, add a few vertebrae on the bottom. You need something to stick into the cupcake, so you can add as many vertebrae as you want, only the top one or two should show once it's in the cupcake.

Arms :

I just used the generic bone shape for the arm and then just added a hand onto it. I did some facing each way, but it's really not that big of a deal. I did make some arms extra long by making a ball elbow joint and then just added another bone on the bottom.

Since you made the cupcakes already, you will know how many of everything you need. I used one skull and one arm per cupcake. You can add more if you want. Also, MAKE EXTRAS! So many of mine broke and it was really frustrating. Also, if you want to toughen them up a bit, give them a little time to dry and then do another layer on top.

Weak Points you will want to reinforce:

Bottom of the arm you are going to stab into the cupcake

The skull's jaw, the sides are thin and easily break

Fingers, make them stubby

Where the head meets the top vertebra
