Finish Making the Mortar Boards

Stephanie Gallagher
Once you have the fruit roll-up tassels done, you are ready to attach the tassels to the mortar board base. Squeeze a dab of black gel icing on top of the thin mints, and attach an M&M candy to it. Next, squeeze a short line of black gel icing next to the M&M, and attach the fruit roll-up tassel to it, pressing gently to make sure it adheres. Let the icing on your graduation caps dry for a few seconds before attaching the tassels to the cupcakes.
