baking with ivy...

was so much fun!! last night our sweet friends, drew and ivy came over for dinner and a baking experiment. the plan was to feed the boys well so they would be content while ivy and i attempted to recreate "bakerella chick cake pops." now i'm not saying that they even compare, but it was really fun and we had a great time. lots of laughing, especially with mark's quote of the night, "are those the tweezers we use on our toes!" (no, we don't use tweezers on our toes, at least i don't! ha!) we did use tweezers to help place the feet and wings.

here are some pictures of the final products...

one cute little chick!

all wrapped and ready to share! (we thought it looked like we were suffocating them, but what are going do! :))

the other great thing about this little project was my friend jenny also gave them a try. we have been chatting and comparing notes the last couple of days which has been so fun. jenny doesn't have a blog, but her friend missy blogged about jenny's chick cake pops. click here and check them out, they are pretty cute!!

i must admit i had no reason for this endevor just thought it would be fun. i also had very low expectations that they would look remotely similar bakerella's. she is the master of cake pop cuteness, since they turned out OK i think i will give most of these to olivia's class as a little "happy easter" treat!

coming soon-- cupcakes!!
