    Roll the fimo into a thick sausage shape, this will form the base of the cupcake.

    Once into sausage shape squash it down and then with the craft knife use it to put lines around the side of the base.

    Then with the topping strip add it to the base, curling it around so it looks like the top of an ice cream cone.
