If that’s the case then I could probably make them, which would be awesome. Especially if I used Sugar Skulls. [...] [...] I imagine that the main difference is probably the granularity of the sugar.

I put them there so they dry fast, left them around 20-30min, took them off and I am letting them store in a room for 1-2 days and will start decorating them. I have made 15 so far and they are not crumbling or falling apart, they look awesome, but you have to make sure to press the sugar into the mold so they don't break. Hope this helps someone :) I just started to do my calaveritas and it was so easy

We are not Mexican but we have visited Mexico and simply adore the country and the people. My 21 yr old daughter is getting married and has chosen Nov. 1 partly because it IS the Day of the Dead and she says that way her Grandparents and uncle and all her departed family can attend. The theme for the reception will be The Day of Dead and we are researching sugar skulls to use for decoration. You should see people's faces when you say that the wedding decorations will be skulls... We think it will be GREAT! Not your typical wedding reception! This is a great page... and I have been to many. The recipe sounds simple and straight forward so I will attempt making some. I had hoped to find pre-made skulls but so far not much luck. I am still looking though. I ran across this page doing research on the Day of Dead. We are not Mexican but we have visited Mexico and simply adore the country and the people.
