Cake making!

These are the cakes I made for Vivi's 4th birthday- it was a bug party so I had to do something bug-themed, right? :)

The first one is sculpted with rice crispy treats and covered in chocolate frosting, graham cracker crumb dirt and sitting in coconut flakes that were colored with food dye. There were some candy rocks and sugar flowers and sprinkle covered rice crispy mushrooms, too! Then I added plastic ants and the birthday candles (the only non-edible parts of the cake)!


This cake was super easy! I cut donuts in half and lined them up on a large platter to look like a creepy crawly centipede. The legs were pretzel sticks and I used marshmallows and sprinkles for the happy bug's face!

It definitely brought a smile to the kiddies! They were all sooooo excited to eat it!

And here's last year's "blue party" that was also made of solid rice crispies! It was pretty much impossible to eat the whole thing!  Check out all the party pictures here!
