consistency to spread. Add va
nilla. Divide frosting in half; add

Easy Halloween Cupcake
Decorations
To make decorations the kids
w'll love to try these: For choco
late pumpkins and witches' cats,
form round balls of chocolate
frosting, flatten in palms of
hands, and shape. For eyes, nose
mouth, and pumpkin stems use
bits of jellied candy, cloves,
chocolate bits, slices of maras
chino cherries, and corn candy.
A fence for the cat may be cut
from a long jellied licorice candy.
. For small pumpkin faces use
round flat orange jelly candies;
cut in half crosswise to make
pumpkin faces a shiny orange.
