Toy Story: A Third Birthday

Recently I made some Toy Story themed cupcakes and cookie pops for a 3rd birthday.  I was excited to make these because the request was specifically for Woody, Buzz, Jessie and Bullseye.  Jessie and Bullseye were characters I hadn't turned into cookies, much less cookie pops before. I was up for the challenge.  Check it out!

Jessie is of course my favorite. Which has nothing to do with the fact that we share a name (OK so its spelled differently, but still!) or that we both have red hair, or that we are both feisty....OK maybe it does have to do with all of those things! I am pleased with how these turned out, gotta love Toy Story!

Go Twins!

This weekend I did some fun cookie pops for a fellow blogger.  Amanda over at Sleeping Single In A Queen Size Bed wanted some Twins baseball cookie pops.

Here are a few close ups.

Thanks Amanda for having me do such fun cookies!

Happy Pop...Sad Pop

It has been a busy week. I had to take a couple of days off from blogging due to this nasty cold I had. That time of year I guess!
However, now its back to the fun! Last week I posted about some fun Jack Pops for Halloween. I also made some Happy Pops and Sad Pops....

I made these for a going away luncheon we had for a co-worker of mine.

My co-worker Mike got a new job and was leaving us. We were "Happy You Got A Great New Job" but also "Sad to See You Go".

Everybody loved the oreo pops and Mike got a kick out of the happy and sad messages!

Jack Pops!

The other day, I'm reading blogs and come across a post by Kim at Frost Me. She had a variety of ideas for a Jack Skeleton party. You know Jack, from A Nightmare Before Christmas! Kim had posted an idea she found for making Jack Pops from marshmallows. I loved it! Check her post here. However, I like marshmallows, but really only when they are in smores or dipped in some kind of chocolate. The idea of just a plain marshmallow pop was just not that appealing. I modified this awesome idea, and used the template for his body (Check original source out here.) and made Jack Skeleton Oreo Pops!! I'm just giddy with excitement!

How cool is Jack?!
I stuck lollipop sticks in between oreos, then dipped in white chocolate. Once the chocolate was set I piped on his face with royal icing. I originally planned to use an edible food marker, but the chocolate was sweating and made it difficult to draw.
While I was on a roll, I thought I'd bust out a Jack-O-Lantern pop as well!

The chocolate got a little messy, I still haven't mastered this whole chocolate dipping business. However, I think they still turned out awesome, and of course, taste great!
Lets take one more look at Jack...

I'm so proud of him! He was a fun project to do! Try him out yourself for your own Halloween fun!
