I did my Holiday baking last week which involved making Buckeyes.  If you do not know what buckeyes are, they are a just a peanut butter mixture, shaped into a ball and then dipped in chocolate. I thought I would try something a little different and made a chocolate mixture ball shape too and dipped them in the chocolate as well.
Another thing I made which are my favorite to eat are chocolate No Bake Cookies. I also made Peanut Butter No Bake Cookies.
 
And then I made Oatmeal Raisin Cookies which I love as well.
Next I made Peanut Butter and Chocolate Walnut Fudge.
By the time I got done I was so over chocolate and peanut butter, lol….
I made individual bags and boxes of my special treats to share with some special friends one being my favorite McDonalds drive thru friend who takes excellent care of me when I go to McDonalds to get the Mcskillet Burrito that I love.  And the rest being family and my fabulous neighbors who always bake and share their goodies with me and my family every year.

Gumpaste Santa, Reindeer, and Snowmen

28 Dec

Here are a few of my latest Gumpaste Figures that were made over the past few weeks, for the holidays.

I am officially done creating Christmas Figurines and ready to move on to other exciting creations
such as Winnie the Pooh, Bride and Groom, A girl beside her Bed Praying, A Bear, A little Boy and Girl
playing in the Snow and some others. I love creating different figures that I have never done before
but I need to go shopping and buy lots of Fondant and Tylose Powder since I plan to get sculpting.
It sure does make the gloomy, cold days go by much quicker when creating gumpaste figures or
designing cakes. So this is the plan and one that I cannot wait to get started on. As always when
I get them done I will be sure to post them all so that all of you, my sugar friends can get a good look as
well as some great ideas for your own little sugar creating sessions. If the gloomy days are
starting to get to you grab some gumpaste and get creating, and be sure to send me a picture of
your newest creations I always love seeing the things you all create.
I will talk with you all soon, and I will have your late Christmas Gift available for you next week
like I said in my last post. I think you will all love it!
Bye for now,
Donna
