Do they like rhubarb?
I just recently made some mini cakes with cake mix and pureed rhurbarb that had been soaking in sugar and pumpkin pie spice- everyone who tried them love them.
I took a white cake mix, used melted butter instead of oil, half rice milk/half water (add little bit less due to the water from the rhubarb) mixture, pureed rhubarb mixture (as mentioned above).
I would recommend serving them with either sweetened whipped cream or cool whip.
I baked mine in a cake pan that had 6 mini hearts in it, they baked up so pretty.
I also used buttermilk instead of the rice milk/water combo and they tasted good.
if you do a cake maybe you can do a congratulations i was looking in the baby shower gallery and saw a gerat cake that was for a girl it was round and said baby girl and they had piped pink feet prints like they do when the baby is born. I think that would be a great idea. Maybe you could write welcome home baby(name here) with the feet.
ok so you can do pastel pinks and violet and yellow. Using a star tip might work the best on top put your message with the feet. maybe use some candy melts and the baby shower molds to make some decorations for the top.
Im glad uncle sams coming together.
Use a star tip for the message? Haven't done that (usually avoid writing) Oooh! I could use candy melt decorations as the quilt pictures and just star tip squares to frame it! I like the color choices. What would you do on the top
Uncle Sam had a near tragic incident with a lost ear, but I think we're okay now LOL
Not a bad idea. I do have the letter press. Just haven't had much luck with it. You are such a huge help thank you thank you thank you!
P.S. w/Candy Clay, you have to roll it in cornstarch to keep it from sticking, but then how do you get the cornstarch off?
did you make your own or did you buy the kind they sell at micheals??? i have wanted to try it but i am a chicken. lol would it work to cover an entire cake with???? I dont like fondant and i think im the only person on this site who doesnt like the mmf either.
I made it from the recipe on CC... It is super sweet ( 14 oz bag of candy melts & 1/3 c corn syrup) I do have to say that I've been able to work w/it better than fondant or MMF. But I'm new to all of it! Don't be chicken...what's the worst that can happen...it looks bad, tastes bad and you have to start over? You probably wouldn't even remember a week later.
I was just thinking a couple minutes ago that I'll probably make some up for my girls to play with while I'm decorating...they always want to help!
your right my dads birthday is next week maybe i can try it out then. Im still not sure what im going to do for his cake. He will be 47 i really like the idea of him falling into the grave. have you seen those cakes on here??? i think they are hilarious. i could make him out of candy clay and maybe the tombstone as well. hmmmm how much does one batch make??? i dont know if i could think of something do do with all of it.
I think those cakes are sooo mean...does your dad have a sense of humor? As long as the cake isn't for me...that's fine. I'm sure you could use the candy clay for a tombstone & guy...you could also use it to make a 47. Maybe the grim reaper?? LOL Hey if you're gonna be mean--go all the way!
I'm not sure how much it makes, but the recipe says it stores for 6 weeks @ room temp in an airtight container.
yes my dad has a good sense of humor. i always tell him he is old he laughs about it. actually i thought about making a cake with a cake with him pushing 50. maybe i will still do that i can make him out of candy clay and the number 50 and have him actually pushing it. lol i have been teasing him sense he turned 40 that he was pushing 50.
That's a really cute idea...I like that better than the grave idea...something else about the candy clay...it seems to hold color really well.
**Please know that tonight is the first night I've used it, and I don't necessarily know what I'm talking about 
LOL Maybe that should be my signature line!
