In the meadow we can build a snowman
Even though it’s never snowing in Australia when it’s Christmas, happy
times call for easy DIY sweet treats to do with the kids. Cake pops are
easier to serve than cake, and require no slicing, no plates, and no
forks - and every child gets their fair share of fun. Our snowman cake
pop started as two cake balls attached to each other, dipped and then
decorated with winter-ware made out of fondant.
It can be shaped and dipped 1-2 weeks ahead to avoid the last minute
Christmas baking rush. Then they can be decorated with the kids by
setting up an assembly line, and put kids in charge of affixing scarves,
hats and other trimmings. Place the finished snowman in a cupcake
liner and watch kids marvel for a second before gobbling them up!
