I used the method from my previous post "You’ll Have A HOOT Making These!" but updated with better photos and instructions. I hope you like them, they make fab cake or cupcake toppers :-)
· Modelling paste
· Food colouring
· Edible glue
· A large and small petal cutter
· Two small circle cutters or piping nozzles
· Letter cutters (optional, for the initials)
· Cut out the initials, if using, paint and leave aside to dry
· Colour your modelling paste as desired, I used Chestnut for the bodies and Liquorice for the eyes
· Cut out the bodies with the large petal cutter
· You can use lustre at this point to make the bodies shimmery if you wish - I used copper
· Take the small petal cutter and cut out the top of the ‘body’ to make the ‘ears’
· Cut out another large petal in your chosen wings colour
· Use the small petal cutter again to cut out wings
· Cut out white circles for eyes using the larger piping nozzle
· Cut out pupils in black using the smaller nozzle
· Assemble the owls, using a small amount of glue to hold them together
· Use the very tip of the small petal cutter to make a beak
· Finish off with the feet – cut two small ovals with the piping nozzle. Attach to the body and press into the feet with a cocktail stick or knife to make the ‘toes’
· Leave to dry for an hour or so before using on your bake
