I was just asked to make republican petit fours. The suggestion was elephants or american flags on top. Do you guys have any other ideas for these?
I was just asked to make republican petit fours.
well considering the size, can you really fit an elephant on there? maybe just the face?
ditto for flag...that would be miniscule detail work.
What might be a better solution would be sort of a petit fours verison of a cupcake cake would be very easy to do as a flag.
bunch of red laid out in rows, with bunch of white (ditto) the stripes of the flag.
then blue ones, some (50?) with stars on them for the field of blue.
It might be hard to put elephants on something so small. Maybe just make them red. white, and blue. You could put GOP on them too. : )
small edible face images of past republican presidents/Vice Presidents or maybe local republican leaders in your state? Regan, Bush...(or print out little paper heads and make like a bust of them )
Well if you can find a tiny elephant cookie cutter... you could frost the petit four white, then cut out blue fondant elephants...
way out in left field comment re: busts
hmmm....does this mean we get to do a Henry VIII/Alice's Queen if we don't like the pres. depicted...."OFF WITH THEIR HEADS!!!!"

Any more ideas out there for this one. I have to come up with some designs for her to pick from this week.
I love Doug's idea too!
edited to add: Doug, you're just so darn smart! What would we do without you?
Leave it to Doug to come up with a bust idea!!!!
Love the idea of the red, white & blue petit fours in the design of the flag.
I love Doug's idea too!

or is it sleep deprived and halucinating?!?!?!?
Bwahahaha! Nope, wide awake!

Just in case anyone is following this. The customer chose the sittingelephant and the repelephant, she wants half and half. The sitting elephant was my favorite! I will post them in March when I make them
If I were the customer, I would have chosen the sitting elephant also. If I were the decorator, I would have chosen just the elephant head!!!! All choices were very nice. Glad no one asks me to do Republican cupcakes--I'd probably stick a donkey on them.............oops! Need to keep my political beliefs to myself. As my daughter would say when she sells to someone she doesn't like: "Their money's green, that's all that matters."
Ha ha ha!! Doug, so funny!! Of course, you could always do a Marie Antoinette bust instead and yell, "Let them eat cake!"
Stupid me. Not cupcakes----petit fours---had my normal lapse in memory. We call them brain f----s!
Anyway, beautiful elephants. Will be anxious to see them when you get done in March.
