Ro: Hey guys, it’s Ro! Welcome to another Nerdy Nummies!
Ro: Today I have a very special guest, Michelle!
Michelle: Hi!
Ro: Thank you so much for being here, I am so excited! We got so many requests
Ro: from you guys to make something Super Smash Bros. and Michelle was the perfect
Ro: guest because, you like this game! Michelle: I love Princess Peach!
Ro: Yeah, she’s even got her Princess Peach gloves on today. And, my
Ro: favorite character is Kirby.
Ro: Are you ready to get baking? Michelle: I am! Ro: Alright!
Michelle: Let’s do it! Ro: Fingers out, ready, 1, 2, 3!
Both: Let’s get started!
Ro: The things you will need, will be: A red cake mix, I’m using a box cake to
Ro: save some time, but you can use any recipe that you’d like. 1-1/4 cups of water,
Ro: 1/3 cup of vegetable oil, 3 eggs, frosting, a cupcake tray, lined with these
Ro: little paper liners. You will also need…
Michelle: Food coloring, we have red, tan, yellow, green, blue and pink!
Ro: Pink, pink, pink, pink, pink!
Michelle: And of course, black decorative icing, a big mixing bowl, electric hand
Michelle: mixer, jelly beans! Ro: Jelly beans! Michelle: For everyone!
Ro: Now let’s put it all together!
Ro: Now this part is totally optional, Michelle and I both have little plastic
Ro: baggies here, and it’s filled with white cake batter. You can use any
Ro: recipe that you’d like, and we’ve got little number 1 tips at the ends for
Ro: more control, and then what we’re going here, totally optional, is we’re
Ro: drawing a little design on the bottom of the cupcake. So that when they bake,
Ro: and you take it off, you’ll have a little symbol at the bottom.
Michelle: Very cryptic! Ro: Yeah! I’ve seen these done for Valentines Day,
Ro: so cute, you can put a little heart at the bottom. But today, we are gonna
Ro: be making the Smash Bros. logo.
Michelle: Before you start, you want to make sure that the image is mirrored,
Michelle: so that when you see the cupcake, the logo is revealed in the right place.
Ro: OK, so you’re gonna take your little bag of cake batter. Michelle: OK.
Ro: And first we’re just gonna do a thin bar across, and then we’re gonna
Ro: do a thick bar all the way down vertical. Michelle: Down!
Ro: Now you’re gonna do this to the rest of your cupcake liners and we’re gonna
Ro: set this off to the side, we’re gonna put this in the freezer and
Ro: let it sit there for about 30 minutes.
Michelle: Alright, now we’re gonna put all of our red velvet ingredients into
Michelle: the mixing bowl.
Michelle: Oh!
Ro: Oh my gaw! Who invited me? Oh my god!
Ro: Now add a little water. Michelle: Water!
Ro: Now I’m adding the oil. And now, 3 eggs! I’m gonna do the double crack,
Ro: Michelle! Michelle: Oooooh, the double crack. Ro: Stand back!
Michelle: What’s going on here? Ro: Watch out here! Michelle: Double crack.
Ro: No, no, no, let’s do the triple crack! Michelle: Ooooooh OK…
Ro: OK, I’m not good at this! I just invented this just now!
Ro: OK, here we go. Michelle: I’m gonna hold onto the bowl, go for it.
Ro: 1, 2, 3… Triple crack!
Michelle: Whoa! Huh! That. Was. Ro: Oh my gosh, did that actually work?
Michelle: It worked! There's no shell or anything!
Ro: Not 1 shell made it in there, but my hands….
Michelle: Boss level! Thug life right here!
Ro: My hands!
Ro: Now we’re gonna mix everything together on a medium speed for 2 minutes.
Ro: Michelle, are you ready? Michelle: Let’s do it!
Ro: Alright, that’s medium, that’s good! Michelle: Is this medium? We’re good.
Ro: That number 3, that’s medium. Michelle: It’s going! OK!
Ro: Ooooooooooh! Michelle: Whoooooooo!
Michelle: Alright, so now that we have our batter all mixed up, we’re just gonna
Michelle: scoop it in, into our cupcakes.
Ro: Mmmmhmmm! We’ve got these little guys right here, we have a tablespoon
Ro: and a 1/2 a tablespoon. And you guys know, I usually do 2 tablespoons for every
Ro: cupcake, but, because the red velvet cake is very moist, it just doesn’t
Ro: rise as much, so we’re gonna be doing 2-1/2. Michelle: Oooooh!
Ro: Tablespoons in each cupcake! Alright, let’s get started! Michelle: OK!
Ro; This is very messy, don’t be afraid, it’s OK!
Ro: Now we’ve got our cupcakes ready, we’re gonna pop these in the oven at
Ro: 325 and bake for 20 minutes.
Ro: Now I’m going to show you how to make our favorite Smash Bros. characters.
Michelle: Yes! Ro: We’re gonna be making Kirby and… Michelle: Princess Peach!
Ro: Yeah!
Ro: So, we’ve got our cupcakes here, and then in these little bowls we’ve got
Ro: some ivory colored frosting and some pink colored frosting. And I’ve
Ro: heated these both up in the microwave, just a few seconds, you don’t
Ro: want it to be too warm. And then we’re gonna do, the dip!
Ro: Are you ready? Michelle: Let’s do the dip. Ro: OK. Michelle: Let’s get it girl!
Ro: Put it in there, and then you just wiggle it around, make sure it touches all
Ro: all the sides, and then you just slowly bring it up, dew-dew-dew!
Ro: Let the excess frosting drip off.
Ro: Now it’s time for my favorite part, it’s time to decorate! Michelle: Yay!
Ro: I’m gonna be adding some little Jelly Beans, and frostings, to make our
Ro: little characters.
Ro: So over here on Kirby, I’m gonna be taking 2 red jelly beans, for his feet.
Ro: I’m just gonna stick ‘em right down here at the bottom!
Michelle: Oh that’s a good idea!
Ro: For his little…. What are… Are these really hands?
Michelle: Yeah! Yeah, he has hands.
Ro: We’re gonna get 2 pink Jelly Beans, put these over on the sides.
Michelle: Oh! Ro: Then we’re gonna get some black decorative icing, and I’ve just
Ro: put a number 2 tip here at the end for a little bit more control, and we’re
Ro: just gonna draw 2 eyeballs, really easy!
Ro: Michelle, do you have a favorite jelly bean flavor?
Michelle: I do, it’s cheesecake. Strawberry… Ro: There’s a cheesecake jelly bean!?!?!
Michelle: Strawberry Cheesecake Jelly Bean. Yeah. It’s really good!
Ro: I didn’t know that, I like watermelon. Michelle: Oh watermelon’s good too!
Ro: And then I’m gonna give him a little smile.
Ro: Yes! Michelle: Yeah! Woooo!
Ro: Little Kirby! Now we’re gonna make Princess Peach.
Michelle: So for peach, I’m gonna outline her hair first, and from there
Michelle: we’re gonna fill in the rest of her face.
Ro: Anybody watching this video, this is a blue jelly bean, with silver around it,
Ro: What flavor do you think it is?
Michelle: It’s unicorn tears! Ro: Oh my gosh! Is it? Let me taste it, here goes!
Michelle: Does it taste sad and magical? Ro: Oh no, like in the first bite
Ro: it almost tastes like laundry detergent.
Ro: While Michelle is decorating, I’m gonna make a Princess Peach Crown out
Ro: of a little bit of yellow fondant, and some sprinkles.
Michelle: If you guys have ever played around with fondant, it really feels like
Michelle: Play-Doh, and you can eat it too. Ro: Same as Play-Doh!
Ro: I’m just kidding! Michelle: No you’re not! You ate Play-Doh!
Ro: Play-Doh’s really salty!
Ro: Alright, these are the first 2 characters that we made, and they turned out
Ro: so cute! Michelle: Oh! Ro: we’ve got little Kirby over here!
Michelle: Your Kirby looks amazing!
Ro: Yeah, it’s just really simple, you don’t need to do anything fancy to
Ro: really make him look like the characters. And then Michelle made
Ro: Princess Peach, she is so cute!
Ro: Now we have a lot more decorating to do because we have a lot more
Ro: characters to make! And remember you can make whatever character you like
Ro: from the game!
Both: Ta-da!
Ro: Here are the Super Smash Bros. Cupcakes that we made today, I hope you guys
Ro: liked ‘em! We got a bunch of characters.
Ro: Over here we’ve got Yoshi, Toon Link, Sonic, Mario, Mega Man, Kirby,
Ro: Pikachu, Samus and of course, Princess Peach! Michelle: Princess Peach!
