Pizza.... or is it?

My oldest celebrates his 8th birthday this week and we had a bowling party for him and his friends. As in previous years, I let him pick the cake idea. This year he picked pizza. I was excited because I didn't think it would be difficult to do. I WAS RIGHT! It was an easy theme to accomplish.....ta dah!!!

I used raspberry jam in the icing and white cake mix. I colored some white melting wafers with orange and when hardened grated them and white chocolate for the cheese. Colored fondant completed the look as sausage and pepperoni.

Dinosaurs - sort of

A friend from work wanted some Dinosaur Cake Pops for her little guy's 4th birthday party. They were harder than I thought - waaayyyy harder. It was a real trial and error for a little while. What was the hardest was coming up for an idea for their face - to have a mouth? teeth? I tried several things out on a "sample" that didn't work. In the end - they don't have mouths. I think they look better that way. My husband came up with the idea for bow ties for the boys. I had bows on the girls. I think they turned out pretty cute!

forgot about halloween

SCARY! I missed posting some scary ghosts. Made these for my 7 & 5 yr old's classes at school for halloween. I wanted a healthy snack so made some strawberry ghosts.
