Instructions
  1. First you mix together the sprinkles and make the fondant pieces:
  2. Mix all sprinkles together until combined and set aside. Sprinkle some cornstarch onto the cutting board. Remove the green fondant from the package and knead onto the cutting board to make the fondant soft and workable.
  3. Sprinkle some more cornstarch onto the cutting board and roll the fondant into ¼ inch thick. Using the round fondant cutter, cut out 36 round circles.
  4. Place them onto the cookie sheet. Work the golden yellow fondant to be able to roll out into ¼ in thick. Place the loki horn cut out onto the yellow fondant and cut out about 20 horns.
  5. Place onto the cookie sheet to dry overnight. Using the black fondant, pinch off about 1 tbps of fondant and press it into the medium bow mold.
  6. Carefully remove the bow from the mold and place onto the cookie sheet to dry overnight. This makes about 20 bows!
  7. The next Day, Using the silver cake spray, lightly spray the bows and ears to give them a shine. Using the gold cake spray, lightly spray the horns to give them the gold look.

  9. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a cupcake pan with liners. Using a large bowl, beat together the cake mix, milk, butter and eggs until combined and smooth.
  10. Fill the cupcake liners ¾ way full and bake in the oven for 21 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  11. Frosting directions:
  12. Using a standing mixer, beat together the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy whipping cream until combined, smooth and stiff.
  13. Scoop 2 Cups of the frosting into the piping bag. Using the ice cream scooper, scoop frosting into the scooper and top the cupcakes with the frosting.
  14. Using a butterknife, gently spread the frosting into a thick round disk. Roll the frosted cupcake into the sprinkles. Set aside and complete steps with remaining cupcakes.
  15. Using the piping bag, pipe a dollop of the frosting into the center of the cupcakes and place the bow into the center of the frosting.
  16. Gently place the horns behind the bow and gently place the ears behind the horns!
