I love this video. I have a question if i use yellow or butter cake mix will thay still look as good or it better to use a darker cake mix . I want to make these for my son 1st birthday. Do u have any ideas on how to make or what should i use for big bird?

@MrSavage336

I don't think that using any other flavor of cake mix will drastically change the appearance of the cupcake. In regards to big bird, I also contemplated making them but finally decided to go with Oscar instead. I am not sure if the sell yellow icing in a ready to decorate tube. If not, making yellow icing is pretty easy, unlike making red (which turns out mostly pink). Just use a couple of yellow food coloring drops in white icing and eyeball it until you like the color.

As for the actual face of big bird, well that is interesting. Eyeballs, same as the others, except I would add the pink and blue upper eyelids with the icing colored in those colors. If you have searched the internet for big bird cupcakes, you will notice that all the beaks look a little off. I can't think of anything else except fondant. They sell it in craft stores. Make them ahead of time so they may get hard. Hope this helps! :)

I am doing a sesame street theme party for my girl who is turning 2 and I am def. trying this!

[hedikomoon]

Great video. I'm throwing my son's first bday party this Tuesday. The theme is Elmo and I really want to make these cupcakes but I don't know if I'll be able to. I've made so many cupcakes before and they just NEVER turn out right. Aaahhhh! But, I think if I have time, I'll see if I can do it!
