Jabba Da Hut Cupcakes

My friend had challenged me to make Jabba Da Hut cupcakes for a party she was going to and I accepted the challenge eagerly.  I had a picture to follow but it was quite difficult to figure out how to get the frosting in the consistency so that it was actually moldable.  After doing some research, I figured I'd try making a really thick buttercream. I got help from my friend to experiment with different techniques to make this Star Wars character.  It was hard  to make such an 'interesting' looking character but I think we did a good job!

The cake part was red velvet cupcakes with white chocolate cream cheese. Then we plopped Jabba on top of it for decoration.
