When I was a kid, taking treats for your Birthday was one of the highlights of the entire year. Every year it was the standard home made cupcake.
So yesterday was Presley's day to bring treats.
Now for those of you that know me, I LOVE to bake. It is the crazy dreamer inside of me that wants to wear an apron and be June Cleaver....
So I couldn't send JUST cupcakes.....
I had to go big or go home. So I went and tried Bakerellas Cake Pops. So here is a few things to consider when dreaming big with armature skills:
1- Never try a new recipe under pressure without a back up plan.
2- Even though your intentions are professional Maggie, sometimes your skill.....not so much.....
3- Stop crying in the "balls"
Okay now for the finished product.
I am proud to say they were a hit with the class, even the teacher asked how to make them. The neighbor swooned and my husband inhaled the leftovers. So while I strive to have perfect balls.... perfect can be so boring...
I too strive for perfect balls
ReplyDelete'Bout time you got yourself a blog! Your balls are da bomb! Seriously, they are too cute. Get this, we aren't allowed to take anything homemade to the kid's schools out here in Kuna...store bought only. Dumbest rule ever!
ReplyDeletePretty balls!
They were both beautiful and creative. Hats off to the baker.
ReplyDeleteI love your purple balls! Really cute idea, wish I'd thought of it. How the heck do you make cake on a stick? Talked to your daughter this a.m. via Mom's speaker phone. They called to "bug Aunt Shannon". Presley was eating pb&j with chips.
