Hot Air Balloon Sweet Treat Inspiration Challenge Winner

The hot air balloon submissions for our latest Inspiration Challenge took us to new heights, with cookies bursting with rainbow patterns, soaring cakes and even an assortment of balloon cake pops!  A big congratulations to GigisFreshBaked— and be sure to check out the other awesome Hot Air Balloon Sweet Treats in the Sweet Treat Challenge 14 album!

These sugar cookies covered with fun royal icing designs and gelatin hot air balloons  were a favorite right away! We love how GigisFreshBaked took direct inspiration from the Cake Central Gelatin Bubble Tutorial to create her edible balloons, and the intricate detailing in every basket. She did a fantastic job using our Pinterest board for inspiration, and that definitely came through in the designs, colors and patterns in each balloon.
