WHAT YOU NEED:
1 baked cupcake
White icing
1/2 sour gummy worm
2 fruit slices, sliced in half
Gumdrop slices (optional)
2 1/2-inch pieces of shoestring licorice

TO DECORATE:
Frost the cupcake and arrange the following on top: gummy worm "abdomen," fruit slice "wings" (attach gumdrop detail with icing, if you like), and shoestring licorice for the antennae.
