Teeny, Tiny Treats


Sarah and I have started a new venture. We are making birthday cakes in the Easy Bake Oven she and Caroline got for Christmas. Caroline isn't all that taken with it, but Sarah is the cook, and has been having lots of fun making cakes all by herself.

We found a recipe on the Internet that yields a mix for 12 cakes, so have a little store of cakes mixes saved in snack sized zip-lock baggies and ready to go. I bought tiny candy boxes and paper doilies at the Bulk Food Store and Sarah made her first birthday cake for her friend Hannah. It looked adorable. We had such a lot of fun doing it, that the girls' other BFF, Rebecca will also get a tiny cake as part of her birthday present next week.

I always wanted an Easy Bake Oven! I can't believe they still make them. What fun!

Yes, I never had one either and would have killed for one, so it's easy to see who this present was really for - especially when we go all Martha and put it in its own little cake box.
