Mickey Mummy Cupcakes

Prep 30 Min / Cook 25 Min

Ingredients:

  • Batch of baked cupcakes
  • Wax paper
  • Confectioner’s sugar
  • Rolling pin
  • Marshmallows
  • Kitchen scissors
  • White frosting
  • Chocolate nonpareil candies
  • Chocolate-covered raisins

Directions:

1. Working atop wax paper dusted with confectioners sugar, use a rolling pin to flatten a bunch of marshmallows. 

Baking props like a rolling pin, flour, and dough pieces on a rustic wooden counter evoke the backstage magic of creating spooky-themed cupcakes for your Halloween celebration at the park.

2. Use kitchen scissors to cut the rolled marshmallows into thin strips. Set the strips aside for now. 

Scissors and pieces of white paper shaped for magical crafting sit on a wooden table, ready to create Mickey Mummy Cupcake toppers inspired by the Halloween festivities at Disney Parks.

3. Frost the cupcakes. Press a pair of nonpareil candies (white side down) into the frosting at the top of each cupcake to resemble Mickey ears. Then add a pair of chocolate-covered raisin eyes. 

A whimsical cupcake styled like a panda face with white icing, cookie ears, and chocolate candy eyes rests on a wooden counter—an irresistible treat for visitors at the theme park’s Halloween celebration, combining adorable design with sweet theme park magic.

4. Randomly place marshmallow strips over each cupcake, leaving the eyes exposed, to resemble a mummy. Gently press the strips into the icing just enough to make them stick in place. When the cupcakes are sufficiently covered, use the kitchen scissors to trim the marshmallow around the perimeters, as needed.

Panda-themed cupcake with white frosting and chocolate ears, styled like a playful park mascot treat, rests on a wooden table—an imaginative dessert that brings a whimsical twist to your theme park Halloween celebration, ideal for fans of fun and spooky snacks.
