TOOLS

Step 1: BASE

if there is a mound on your cupcake cut it off so that it is even.

To make the base of the pizza, simply mix your white frosting with red food coloring gel to create a saucy tomato sauce and frost the cupcake.

(You are suppose to wash your hands but when working with candy or other materials, make sure your hand is super clean so that minor dirt wil not show up in the material)
To make the crust began with two yellow starburst with one orange starburst in the microwave  for 10-15 second, keep your eyes on it so it won't burn.
mix these together by twisting it into one another.  when it is all mixed up roll it in your palm to make a long snake looking piece.  then wrap that around the cupcake to create the crusty goodness.

Step 2: TOPPINGS!

For this part use your imagination and any candy will work.=]

CHEESE : starburst microwaved(10 secs), flattened, cut into strips.
PURPLE ONION: purple gum drops flattened, cut out with large straw and poke a regular sized straw in the middle to create a donut, then cut in half
