Last year's pretties

Without too much of an explanation (this is more of a picture bragging post than a recipe post), here are some pictures of the pretty treats we made last year for Valentine's Day. The process of creating them doubled as our Valentine's Day date and as our "bring" to a party. We started with those Oreo giant soft cookies and covered them in fondant (first and last time using that nonsense), made our own frosting and then made them all pretty.

Rolling out the fondant (note the giant cleaver, which he needs to incorporate into every cooking endeavor)

Stirring (ceiling cam)

Cut my finger and dripped blood in the frosting

I hope you're not that gullible...it's just food coloring. Silly.

His (white) hearts=organized and identical. My (pink) hearts=all over the place

Lefties rule. Just sayin'.

Mmm...those blocks of fondant in the background look like cream cheese.  I want a bagel. Wait, what was I saying?

Yes, I did make a rose out of fondant. It's perfectly normal for you to assume I hold magical powers.

All wrapped up in fondant, ready to be decorated! (Oh look, the cleaver again)

I don't even remember how we made these...we got mad skillz, yo.

Gasp! How did they DO that???

VOILA!

And VOILA!

We rule.


Tell me you're impressed.
