Yellow cakepops...

Hello friendly readers! Ah, I was in a yellow mood today and decided to explore everything that could be done in the combination yellow and cakepops. Now, let me start by saying that I actually only made 3 things-surely there are more yellow things in this world than what I did...for example, big bird, a lemon, the sun, well I am already running out of ideas, but the point is, there really was only one thing I wanted to do, but I wanted to be sure I would not waste all the cakepops on one design if they didn't work out... so let's start with my back up plan, lego men. It was, for me, a risky back up plan, not because the design is difficult-although, I am not sure what would work best to shape the top of the head-I did it from the cake itself, but it isn't that pretty...no, what was risky for me was actually making the faces. And what I was afraid of happened. Despite loads of cakepop experts writing the same thing-the only food writer that works is Americolour-the pen indeed failed for me. I had to mix some black food colouring with water and paint the faces. But you know what? I love the result-especially the baron with his monocle (that is a french word-I do not know what it is in english-if it's the same, then I just don't know how to pronounce it!) What do you think? What faces should I make next time? On to the second design....

MINIONS!!!! For those of you who don't know these fun characters, they are the crazy little workers in the movie Despicable Me, and so cute! I hope I did them justice! Funny thing about these, when I was making them, and they had been dipped and I had put hair on them, I could have just stopped and painted Homer Simpson's face on them-'cause that's what they looked like!!! Third design...

What are the minions obsessed with?

Bananas!! And they are very unhappy when they can't have one...

But oh so happy when they do get the prize! So a banana...not my best work, but considering that I had to play it by ear with the colours, everything came out right... with the minions, everything that is black should have been food writers, I made them with fondant.
Ok, baby is crying! Better go! Tell me what you think!!!
