Well last week we left off with royal icing in the bowl. I was intending to make some super adorable Easter Cupcakes but my schedule got messed up, but I did make some adorable royal icing bunnies that I had my girls help me to decorate.
One thing you want to remember when making royal icing decorations is that you make double if not triple what you need because some end up like this poor little guy.
After the bunnies dried I got some edible food markers and had my girls help me to decorate our furry little critters. This one is mine. I went with the more standard bunny. Pink ears and nose, pretty blue eyes.
My middle child who is a huge Vincent Van Gogh fan created a "Starry Night" bunny
My eldest daughter went more 21st century with a green zombie bunny.
Royal icing can keep in an air tight container for up to a year and even though a couple will break on you they are a fun way to give a child a chance to channel their inner artist and eat it too.
Don't be afraid of royal icing. Make up a batch and play around it is a fun median to make some adorable 3-d decorations .
