Andrew's Birthday Cupcakes, the explanation

I used these ingredients to turn ordinary cupcakes into boxers for Andrew's birthday.

First roadblock, I went through three cookies trying to make ears.

I ended up having to replace them with tootsie roll ears, the same material I was using for the mouth - which added another 1 hour to prep time, as I had to microwave each tootsie roll, flatten them with a rolling pin and use a template to cut out the proper shape.

Frosting the mouth got a little messy - I had to wash my hands five or six times!


Can you tell which cupcake was the first test subject and which one was the last?



This is the picture I used as inspiration.
Four hours later, there's a whole tray waiting for Andrew's attention!
