Halloween Yummy Mummy Chocolate Treats

Julie Griffith posted this clever idea for these quick & easy Yummy Mummy treats for Halloween. She even posted a tutorial on how to make them. Thanks for the inspiration, Julie!

I didn't have any google eyes on hand so I just use small circles from cardstock for mine. (Although they do look much cuter with google eyes!)

I used a Hershey chocolate bar and figured I'd give my "Mummy" a "baby" and wrapped up a Reese peanut butter cup as well.

Created with The Angel Company Rubber Stamp set: Bone Appetit

Rubber Stamped Halloween Cupcakes!

I'm so glad that TAC did not retire the Trick or Treaters Halloween set. It is one of my all time favorite Halloween rubber stamp sets! The stamp is featured in the Fall/Winter 2009 Inspiration Avenue catalogue.

My friends at Mrs. Mack's Bakery & Restaurant have this really cool printer that uses food coloring as ink and rice paper to print photos on cakes. I noticed some leftover rice paper and they gave it to me so I could take it home. I knew this set would make awesome cupcakes! I colored on the stamps with Food Safe (food coloring) markers and then lightly misted them with my ultra fine mist squirt bottle (like you would when you use the watercolor crayons) and then stamped the images directly onto the rice paper. I colored them in with the food safe markers.

OK...I know what you're thinking...."Didn't she use those rubber stamps to make the Sculpey clay pins?" Yes, I did. I recommend using a clean set that you've never used on anything else, but I cleaned my stamps well hopefully they're not toxic...lol

Stamped Halloween Napkin

Looks yummy, doesn't it? OK...well I had to do something to dress up the shot and I didn't have my Jello brain made yet. This is a test that I did with Hanes T-Shirt Maker iron on sheets. I've been having trouble getting a nice clean image when I stamp on fabric so I gave this a shot. It's definitely much clearer, but it does give off a bit of shine. Oh...and you can't use word stamps directly onto it or they'll print backwards. I stamped the backing paper on the other side so it showed through and then traced the words by hand on the right side of the paper.

Supplies:

Trick or Treaters stamp set
Hane's T-Shirt Maker iron on transfer sheets
Orange marker
Ribbon
