A Turkey Lurkey Birthday

Turkey's take two!

William's birthday is so close to Thanksgiving that it was inevitable to turn to turkeys for his cupcake inspiration one of these years! They certainly took a little extra time in crafting the details, but were well worth the effort.

Candy is the key to these birds, so make sure you have:
-Candy Corn
-Nutter Butters
-Oreos

Candy corn was "glued" to the Oreos to create the feathers using melted chocolate in a fan shape. Using red icing, "glue" a single candy corn to the center of a Nutter Butter to make a beak. Two dots of black icing finish the face with eyes. Be sure to set these aside and allow them to harden.

The cupcakes were chocolate and topped with peanut butter frosting. When everything is ready, simply assemble your turkeys and serve!


 Happy birthday William!
