Easy 4th of July Treats!

Easy little fun treats that the kids loved making.

I saw a pic of something similar to these on Pinterest and I wanted to give them a try.  The ones I saw had lollipop sticks in the Oreo's but that didn't work for me.  The stick kept breaking the cookie. 

I used Red, White and Blue (You can purchase below) straws with the marshmallows to add a festive touch.

The marshmallow and Oreo version of these were so easy to make. 

I bought white chocolate chips (you can do dark too!) and picked the colored sprinkles I wanted to use.

The first go around I melted the chocolate on the stove. 
WRONG!
  It burned the chocolate and turned it brown... So I  put the white chocolate in the microwave for about for about 1 minute and it melted perfectly.

Dipped the marshmallows in the chocolate
then rolled them in the sprinkles.  

With the Oreos I dipped one side in the chocolate then dipped them in the sprinkles. I also used candy pieces.  
You can really use whatever you want to decorate.

I laid the Oreos on wax paper to dry. They set in about 30 mins.  Bingo had a fun little dessert for a BBQ!

Retro Candy Table-Repost

I love candy tables but sometimes they can get a little mundane. I saw this one over at Celebrations at Home and I loved its new spin. Loving the aqua and orange and its retro feel...what do you think?  

Have you seen any other unique candy tables lately?

Valentine's Day Cake Pops

Valentine's Day Bear Cake Pops

This came to my inbox last week and before I opened it I thought "Yeah, so cute! I will have to make these for Lily's class for Valentine's Day." I was thinking (before I saw the pics) they would be like cute little balls with icing and red and pink sprinkles. Wrong... They are even better then that.  Look at these darling little Bear Cake Pops from my favorite www.Bakerella.com

I don't think I will attempt this on my first "cake pop" experiment but I am determined one day to make a simple cake pop (i.e. a ball with icing and sprinkles *wink*wink*).  Thought you would enjoy a little "eye cake" this morning.   Click here to see how she does it ;)  Happy Cake Popping!

P.S. On a side note... I have had a couple people requests our Valentine's Day Printables but they have NOT left an email address...If you don't leave your email address I have no way of sending them to you ;(
