Prepare 750 grams of FunCakes Mix for Cupcakes as indicated on the package. Grease the baking pans with bake release spray and divide the batter into the pans. Bake the cakes for 50 – 60 minutes. Release them on a cooling grid right after baking.
Prepare 125 grams of FunCakes Mix for Buttercream as indicated on the package. Cut the cakes in half and fill them with buttercream and apricot jam. Stack them on each other and push the dowel in from the top and cut it to the right size. Use the knife to transform the top cake into a half ball shape. Cover the cake with buttercream and place it in the fridge.
Roll out the black fondant thinly and use the cutting wheel to cut out the eyes and the mouth. Roll out the purple fondant, cut out a rectangle shape and form this into a bow. Place a small piece of purple fondant over the bow for the knot. Knead the white fondant well and roll it out on a with icing sugar covered work surface and use this to cover the cake. Use the edible glue to stick the eyes, mouth and bow on the ghost.
