Mermaid Fin Cupcake

I found this adorable cupcake idea on pinterest and it was perfect for my little mermaid. I used candy melt and wax paper to make the fin. Melted pink and blue candy melts in the microwave added a little green food coloring to blue to make it the perfect color. Then I drew a pattern of the fin on wax paper. Put the chocolate on the pattern sprinkled it so it was sparkly. Put it in the fridge to harden and wala mermaid tails! Swirled some blue buttercream frosting on to make it look like water and plopped the mermaid tail in. The little mermaid and her whole class were delighted!
