Preheat Oven
Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.
Bake
Make cake as directed on box for 24 cupcakes. You can use any cake mix you choose, I just love confetti!
Cool
Bake as directed on box for cupcakes. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Arrange
Draw up a sketch of "Spider Man" or print a face (mask) of "Spider-Man" from the internet. Looking at your sketch, or printed picture, shape your cupcakes in the form of "Spider-Man's" head. I used 22 cupcakes to completely get the form of the head.
Frost
Using a spatula, spread red frosting (any brand you choose) over the cupcakes smoothing them neatly and gently so you don't crumble any of the cupcakes. Once frosted, use a butter knife to clean up the edges of "Spider-Man's" head. Next, draw on "Spider-Man's" eyes using black frosting gel. The eyes can be drawn like a backward and forward slanted letter "D"
Serve
Lastly, using the black frosting gel, place a small dot in the center of "Spider-Man's" eyes and draw straight lines from the dot to the end of the head using the point as your guide. You will then use a "connect-the-dot" method and draw "curved" horizontal lines in between 2 straight lines. Add as many "curved" lines in each row as you would like. (You can model the lines in "Spider-Man's" face from your drawing or internet image)
