Reindeer Cookie Teacher Gifts

Who remembers this blog post a few months ago of one of my very fave bakers, Bakerella? Earlier this year I saw this post and totally swooned and tucked the idea in the back of my very busy brain till the end of year. I was strolling through Coles when I saw Christmas M&M's and jumped for joy (I really did )so this is what Peg and I made for teacher gifts this year.

Here is the production line....childcare, kinder and school.



Here are the cute little labels I designed. All you need is a scalloped circle cutter and away you go.


Hope they think they are as cute as I do.....has anyone out there made any creative teacher gifts this year?

Bakerella Cake Pops

If you have not heard of Bakerella you need to go to her site, like right now. She is the ants pants in the States, even Martha has had her on her show. I have been counting down the months, weeks and now days until I can get my hands on the much awaited book.

I tried these red velvet cake balls a while back and they were amazing, just warning you that its virtually impossible to stop at one.

and seriously how cute are these?

My first attempt at Cake Pops was about a year ago with one of my besties Peggy and this is how they turned out.





Yum! Yum! Yum!
My kids have watched me do this posting and are demanding we make these again soon so stay tuned for some more updates on pops.
