Preparation

Step 1

Put some sanding sugar in a small bowl or plate. Spread a layer of thick frosting on your cupcake and smooth the top.

Turn the cupcake upside down and press into the sugar until it is covered. Press two chocolate chips into the cupcake for eyes.

Using tip #102, pipe some ruffly wings on each side. Spoon some sugar over the wings, then shake off the excess.

Using orange frosting and tip #2, pipe a triangle beak and little feet at the bottom.
Using white frosting, pipe a tiny dot on each eye.
