Spiderwebs

Cut a piece of licorice and make a small circle in the center of your frosted cupcake. Make a larger circle around the initial one. Measure and cut tiny pieces of licorice to fit between two circles. Place these pieces evenly around cupcake to form a web.

Monsters

Place the shredded coconut in a small bowl with a few drops of green food dye. Rub the coconut between your fingers to distribute the dye evenly. Place the coconut onto a frosted cupcake and top with several eyeball sprinkles.

Eyeballs

Using a black edible marker, draw a pupil in the center of a white gumball. Let dry. Using the red edible marker, draw small veins around the pupil. Place three eyeballs together on top of the cupcake.
