Sweet Geniuses!!

Ellie's new favorite show is Sweet Genius on the Food Network.  On it, four contestants compete to create the most tasty, whimsical and creative desserts and win the title Sweet Genius.   She loves the creativity and use of interesting ingredients.  Granna & Papa gave her an Easy Bake dessert kit and we spent Friday afternoon creating desserts of our own!
Here's Ellie measuring out the water for the batter...

and microwaving the tiny cakes.

Abby's job was to mix up the fondant -- pink and purple!

It was our first time working with fondant and we will definitely try it again -- it was like edible playdoh and we had a great time with all the tools in the Easy Bake set.

Abby's pressing strips of fondant into the stencil board.  It imprinted swirls, flowers, leaves and more.  And Ellie's rolling out the fondant for the cookie cutters.

Our first attempt at fondant covered tea cakes!  So fun!  The girls can't wait to try more!  I can see lots of fondant creations in our near future.

My little Sweet Geniuses!!
