my daughter's summer-themed bday is coming up and i've got plans for a dessert stand with stuff that looks like other food:

* 8" round cake that looks like a watermelon (thank you to all CCers who posted their great photos of watermelon cakes!)
* matching smash cake that looks like a slice of watermelon
* macarons that look like cheeseburgers (a la baking-911)
* cuppies that look like pies (a la What's New, Cupcake?)

my cousin requested i make cake balls ... what should i make them look like??

have you looked thru Bakerella's site for ideas?

hmm...i could do her "cupcake bites". i'll have to find those peanut butter cup molds or make do with this other mold i have...

you could make them look liek apples and bananas!

How about meatballs or cherries?

Tomatoes, grapes, blueberries, oranges, deviled eggs (mmmmmm

I like the meatball idea!

maybe apples? i have those little cloves i can use as stems ... maybe some fondant leaves ... hmm, hope i have red candy melts ...

I just made the apple cake balls on Bakerella's site tonight. She used pieces of pretzels sticks as stems and sprinkles for leaves, but since I didn't have any sprinkles, I just piped some green leaf candy melts.

Good luck!
