Superbowl Dessert Sneak Peak
I had a lot of success making cupcake toppers out of candy melts for the Harry Potter movie over the summer that I decided to make some again for the Superbowl. I found each of the team logos online and printed out 12 of each to use as a stencil.
First I taped my stencil sheet onto the counter so it wouldn’t move. Then I put wax paper over the stencil sheet and taped it to my countertop. I was glad that the craft store I went to had dark blue candy melts. I was worried I’d have to make the horseshoes with that light blue color of candy melts.
Then I heated up some dark blue and some chocolate candy melts and started piping. My detailed piping skills aren’t the best, but I think I did a pretty good job.
I’m planning to make chocolate cupcakes with cream cheese frosting then I’ll throw these on top. The frosting on the Saints cupcakes will be colored yellow.

I do the same thing on Friday nights. Totally acceptable. 🙂 The cake looks gorgeous!

Glad I’m not the only one 😉
This looks amazing!!! Great choice of convenience item to make, and what better way to use it than in a layer cake!?!?
Beautiful cake, Jen! I’ve never heard of a filling made from dried fruit, either. Must try it soon!

Sounds like a great combinations of flavors. Layer cakes are the best!
