Ingredients

Method

1.In a large bowl, combine crumbs and frosting. Roll level tablespoons of mixture into balls. Place on tray and freeze 30 minutes.
2.Place melts in a large microwave-safe jug, reserving 18 pieces for wings. Microwave on medium (50% power) in 30-second bursts, stirring between each burst, until melted and smooth. Stir through a few drops of yellow food colouring.
3.Dip the tip of a paddle-pop stick into chocolate melts and insert into a cake ball, pushing halfway through. Stand upright in a styrofoam cake block or tall glass. Repeat with remaining sticks and cake balls. Allow to set (10 minutes). Coat balls in chocolate. Allow to set and repeat.
4.Pour melted dark chocolate into a small zip-lock bag, pushing to one corner. Snip a small tip off corner. Pipe a zigzag pattern over each ball to make bee stripes.
5.Cut-reserved melts in half. Press two halves onto each ball for wings. Using or scissors, cut small pieces of liquorice for nose. Attach to face with a little melted chocolate. Draw on eyes with gel pen. Allow to set.

Prepare a 340g butter cake packet mix following packet instructions. Cool then crumble cake into crumbs. Or save time and use ready-made madeira cake.
