Terry's Chocolate Orange Ghost and Pumpkins - Tutorial (1 Viewer)

As we are back on seasonal themes and with Halloween coming up, I recently made this Terry's Chocolate Orange Ghost and Pumpkins.

All you'll need to make this is the following:
  • 1 x Chocolate Orange
  • Approx 100 - 125 Grams White Icing
  • Approx 25 Grams Black Icing
  • White Edible Paint - Optional (You can use small pieces of white icing for the eye shine).
  • Approx 5 - 20 Grams of Orange Icing (Depending on whether you make pumpkins as well).
  • Approx 5 Grams Green Icing (If you make the Pumpkins) How to make easy Halloween Pumpkin Toppers
  • Piping Gel
  • Dresden Tool
  • Small Paint Brush
  • Dotting Tool - Optional
  • Small Rolling Pin
  • Bow Cutter - Also See How to make easy Minnie Mouse Cupcake Toppers to show you how to make manual bows if you don't have the cutter.
  • 1 x 6-inch Cake Board

The body of the ghost is made from Terry's Chocolate Orange, and the remainder is made from Icing/Fondant.

Because my orange had split, I placed a small piece of icing fondant at the top to hold it in place. Then, to keep the chocolate orange on the board, I used another piece of icing/fondant at the base.

At this point, measure your icing/fondant to ensure that it fits properly over your chocolate orange before your start to add the piping gel. Once you are happy with the size and shape, place it back on your silicone mat until needed.

I then used piping gel to stick the icing/fondant to the chocolate orange and used Renshaw's Jet Black and White for the Ghost and then Tiger Orange and Lincoln Green for the pumpkins.

To define the grooves in the pumpkins, I used a little cocoa powder only because I didn't have any brown lustre dust.

I used small amounts of water to stick the black eyes and mouth onto the ghost and then made the whites using a dotting tool and some edible white paint.

The witches hat was made by rolling a cone and then spreading out the base with my fingers. I then indented the hat with a Dresden tool to make the creases.

The bow was made using Orange Saracino Modelling Paste and a Jem Bow Cutter.
