Ethan's Birthday Party

This was my first time playing with fondant. I thought it turned out really well! I used a marshmallow recipe that my sister in law had forwarded to me. It tasted great, but more importantly it was super easy! I hope to keep making fondant cakes, maybe even learn to sculpt flowers! 
Ethan's party turned out great. The kids in our ward absolutely love Ethan, it's really cool to see. And Ethan loves them, he crawls around following them and laughs at their every move. Ethan got some great gifts including miniature light sabers which he thoroughly enjoys playing with in the dark. He also got a bag of dum dums, and it only took 5 seconds for him to figure out the proper way to hold and suck on a sucker, he's now a pro. ;)

  1. Tara! Will you send me that recipe please? I've been wanting to try fondant too, but I've always heard it tastes not so good.

    Here you go Meghan, it tastes great! Plus it's super easy to add a flavor extract if you want.
