2) Frost the cupcakes with the flavor or color of your choice. This frosting will be what color your spider will be. If it's for a kid's party, it's better to have two or more different colors. This may be an advantage just in case someone prefers vanilla over chocolate, or pink over brown.

3) Cut the licorice into small pieces for the legs. A good suggestion is to measure and use the length of your pinky finger.
