Graduation Caps

I made these for a high school graduation party a couple weeks ago. The client at first wanted some sort of graduation cupcakes for her sons party but once I found this idea she was on board for these instead. Then the fun began...finding the perfect tassel (I had to cut strands of really skinny candy), the perfect candy piece on top (I sorted through the bulk candies to get 20 yellow mini m&m's) and the perfect chocolate (lordie this took four stores and six different chocolate squares before finding the right ones). It was a fun challenge and they turned out pretty cute...I would love to do one next year and incorporate it onto a cupcake or larger cake!
