"Hi, this is Karen from Expert Village. Now I will show you how to make these ghost cupcakes. For the ghost cupcakes you'll need some marshmallows, some marshmallow fluff and some kind of candy bits to make the eyes and the mouth. Okay, first thing we need to do is open our fluff. Choose a nice plump marshmallow and just take a little bit of the fluff, just a little bit for the bottom and that will stick it onto the top of our cupcake. Now, the thing with fluff is that it's full of air so in order to get it some of the air out you want to stir it up in the jar a little bit until it's nice and stringy goopy and take a knife full of it and you're just going to start at the marshmallow and just go around like that and get a little bit more. Now, the marshmallow fluff will melt so you want to be careful about how much you put on it because it will start to drip down the cupcake, but they are fun to make so you don't have to worry about being messy. And one thing to keep in mind is if it's warm out you probably should store your marshmallow fluff cupcake in the refrigerator, otherwise they will be dripping all over the place and then just take them out when your ready to serve. Okay, that gives us the base of the ghost and then you want to put just a little bit on the top. Okay, and just a tiny smear on the face to hold our candies, like that."
