Creative food craft ideas
Many, many trends in food have come, and sometimes gone, in the last few years. Cake pops, macarons, pie on sticks, quirky popsicles, bread art, “pinata” sweets, mustache pops, updated JellO shots, stuff in mason jars… But there has been one consistent, ubiquitous constant in edible crafts. Rainbows. Rainbows are everywhere. Everybody loves rainbows, especially clever, edible rainbows. They … Read More ...
What do you think? All the treats-as-poop thing. Unicorn poop cookies, Reindeer poop candy… I’m kind of on the “ew” side, but gosh, these Leprechaun Poop jars do look darling. And I never thought I’d use “poop” and “darling” in the same sentence. Also, kids love being sanctioned to use the word “poop.” OK, enough. Make these candy jars for … Read More ...
We go together like… rainbows and unicorns? Milk and cookies? Bacon and eggs? There are a billion jillion matches you might substitute here. I could only think of a few. Draw love matches on marshmallow pops HERE at the decorated cookie (which is my other blog, by the way).… Read More ...

Well, not so much 1001, more like 5, but 5 clever uses for Drumstick Ice Cream Cones equals 1001. CakeSpy tested out some new Drumstick Pretzel Dipped Cones (note to Nestle, I’m happy to test out ice cream cones, too) and came up with some variations on how you might serve them, like this totally awesome Unicorn cake. Find the … Read More ...
As one with a thing for the literary, I can’t help but adore this book-themed party from My Insanity. I’m going to keep pushing reading so my kid requests this theme. (Of course, then it will be a rainbow-unicorn-butterfly-princess-sleepover-book party.) These chocolate bars
turned into book favors are my favorites. Find those, other favor ideas and a printable HERE. … Read More ...
Oh my goodness, princesses, cupcakes, frosting, rainbows, unicorns??!? My kid would go bonkers for these. Make super fancy cupcake princesses HERE at CakeSpy, inspired by the Wicked Pumpkin Cupcakes from Amy Atlas’s book, Sweet Designs.… Read More ...
It is essential that I make this with (for) my four year old. I’d love for her to believe in magical jelly beans, and given her affinity for flying unicorns and princesses who can also do ballet, it won’t be a stretch. “Plant” jelly beans in a yummy treat and watch them “grow” into lollipops. Brilliant. Find the how-tos HERE … Read More ...
My daughter is currently obsessed with apples (and unicorns and rainbows and her horsey boots and whether or not it will snow), so I’m pretty sure this healthy Advent calendar would work on her. And bonus, there are also little coupons for “treats,” such as extra TV. I love this idea. I think this may be a new Christmas tradition … Read More ...
Spotted on Ohdeedoh, I’m loving this edible art idea for kids from Michele Made Me: Draw a design on craft paper and let kids outline the design with cereal. My 3-year old’s favorites are represented here (Rice Krispies and Cheerios, plain, eaten dry, two spoons), but I think she’d request a unicorn or princess. Find the how-tos HERE … Read More ...
I’m already picturing these in rainbow colors for my daughter’s rainbow-themed 4th. If she still loves rainbows and unicorns (and trains and carousels and Backyardigans) by August. Find a step-by-step photo tutorial to make your own (easily!) HERE at Kara’s Party Ideas.… Read More ...
Now, mind you, I posted on Jim’s Pancakes months ago. Where were you world? In just the last few hours, I got two have-you-seen-Jim’s Pancakes suggestions (I’m looking at you Sue and Kirsten), then I spotted Jim’s Pancakes on Ohdeedoh, then I spotted Jim’s Pancakes on the front page of Yahoo, and then, well, OK. I felt … Read More ...
Anyone else out there remember when the internet didn’t exist? How about leg warmers, unicorns, and the Smurfs? The Smiths, The Cure, The Clash? Or my favorite movie, Girls Just Wanna Have Fun (starring Sarah Jessica Parker, thank you very much)? Actually, scratch that, Breakfast Club was my favorite. And the Facts of Life, Square Pegs and The Love Boat… … Read More ...
