You can use the recipe on the rice krispie box or you can buy store bought, but it might be cheaper to make your own. I have done both. I just used them on my cinderella cake that is in my photos. I used store bought for my steps and clock tower. It was such a small job, so I did not want to make a big batch of homemade for that small of a job. Hope this helps.

There have been some good posts on here about what people do to mold their RKT but I am not savvy enough to have saved them and therefore post them for you. I do remember that some have said that they mold better if you leave out the butter, if making your own, and just use the marshmallows and cereal. I have tried that method to mold the birds on my birdhouse cake and it worked fine. Good luck. |

I leave out the butter when I make them... To make smaller batches you can just halve or third the recipe on the box.

OK, guys, you talk about a recipe on the RK box??
Here in SA we do not have a recipe on our boxes so could someone
please be so kind as to post the recipe on this thread for future reference.
As it seems, there is quite a bit that one can do with RKT's
Many thanks |

here is the recipe i use, I hope this helps!
40 large marshmallos
1/2 stick of butter
5 Cups rice cereal
melt the butter and mallos on med-low heat stir constantly until melted. Mix the cereal in until covered then shape.
I like to wear latex gloves when shaping, I found it works best if you grease your hands or gloves before handling. (keeps from sticking to you)
GOOD LUCK! |
