Step one

Prepare cake mix according to package directions and bake into 24 cupcakes.
Step two

Reserve 1/4-cup frosting. Frost cooled cupcakes evenly with remaining frosting. Pour coconut into a bowl. Roll edge of each cupcake in coconut.
Step three

Use kitchen shears to cut marshmallows in half. Place one marshmallow half on the cupcake. Cut the other half in half again and use those pieces for the ears. If the marshmallows aren’t sticky enough, use reserved frosting to secure mouth and ears. Use black decorator gel to give each llama a mouth and eyes.
