Red, White and Blue Marshmallows!

Just in time for the 4th of July! I made these for my daughters birthday on the 3rd. 


Very easy! You just need Marshmallows, Chocolate wafers and Popsicle sticks and sprinkles.

They didn't have red and blue only stars so I had my 13 year-old separate them for me.


Ready to dip! I just stuck them in straight so the white would show.


Let them dry slightly on wax paper, don't wait too long or they will flatten. I put them upright when they were almost hardened.



To finish it off I took wired ribbon and hot glued it around the styrofoam wreath.


TADAHH!

Test Kitchen ~Cupcakes

I need to practice my red white an blue cupcakes for Ruby's 1st birthday on the 4th of July! I got my inspiration from Skip to my Lou's post Red, White and Blue Cupcakes.


I didn't practice the frosting, that will be for another day.


I just used Betty Crocker white cake mix added my egg whites then separated the mix into different bowls to add the color. 

I started with a little blue, more white and finished it off with the red. I used a rubber spatula to layer the colors, I was surprised that there was little mess. I was happy with that! :)


They layered perfectly! ..hopefully when I do them for the party it happens again!!

YuM!



The test was a success! and my "tester" thought so too...looks like the dogs are waiting for him to drop some!
