Mac Tonight

Amazing Marshmallows…not so amazing photography tonight!  I guess during my hibernation these past few weeks I forgot how to take good pictures of my treats! Unfortunately, I didn’t know this photo shoot was so blurry until it was too late. So this is all I have of my lovely little crescent moon.  I wanted a swanky sophisticated marshmallow piece and this crescent that I molded was perfect.

Marshmallows with the Sugar Sheets

I completely forgot to post this one from a few weeks ago. I had put all the marshmallows with babies onto my serving tray and it needed a little something to break up the pink. I took the sugar sheets and cut small circles to put on top of the marshmallows. This was a great and easy idea to give the dessert try a little more elegance. Here is what it looked like on the marshmallow up close.

Waaaaaaa!!

Check out this nursery! I decided to mix it up by making some of the babies swaddled and some under blankets. You’ll notice that some are sleeping soundly and others are ready to eat!

Swaddled Baby

I have an important baby shower coming up, and decided to get a head start (literally) on my marshmallow display…This little swaddled baby came out so sweet! I used my appetizer pick to create the indentations for the eyes mouth and ears on the tiny heads.  I readied all the infant heads with their features and put in a sealed bag. I will construct the fondant babies and attached the rest of the heads tomorrow to put on top of white chocolate covered marshmallows.

Sugar Sheets

I REALLY love to try new baking products! My latest ‘new’ item is Sugar Sheets! Just the sound of them sounds exciting. Basically, it’s a sheet of edible paper that you can cut out designs and put onto your cookies, cakes and of course marshmallows. I first tried the sugar paper onto some sugar cookies with a little butter cream frosting. What elegant looking cookies! I tasted some of the paper and it is really unique melting in your mouth.

Painted Marshmallow

After painting the eggs yesterday I had to try out this egg painting technique on my marshmallows using my edible food coloring pens. It is really pretty and the picture doesn’t do it justice. Hard to believe you can eat this!
