Delish Dessert Idea: Cupcake Push Pops

Who doesn’t love an amazing, delicious dessert?  Think about this – a bit of frosting, cake, whipped cream, maybe a few sprinkles or cookie crumbles in a push pop — oh man, our mouths are watering just thinking about it!  Putting all those ingredients together to make a fun push pop could add for a fun new spin on cake at your wedding.  It brings us back to the days as a kid on a hot summer day eating a push pop sucker and push pop popsicle.  Indulging in those desserts will bring every guest in for a good time.  We love that cake push pops are fresh and new and we even tried them out at the Unveiled event in our booth.  Let’s just say the guests loved them and could not get enough of them.  We went for a yummy mixture of vanilla buttercream, key lime filling with a bit of raspberry and vanilla cake.  If your mouth wasn’t watering before, I bet it is now!  Here are a few awesome ideas and of course, kick we’ll kick things off with the awesome cake push pops from the Unveiled event.

DIY: Valentine’s Day Heart Garland

Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone!  We know it is a special day and to make the day even more special, we have a fun DIY Valentine’s day project to share with you — heart garland.  Do you remember this from our Inspiration 101 last week?

We saw it over on Martha Stewart and thought we must try it.  It is a pretty easy project that we are thinking would look great behind a dessert bar, strung across the ceiling, wrapped around glasses or jars.  Oolala, so many fabulous ideas!  Think of all the fun shapes you could make it out of, but in honor of Valentine’s Day, we tried out the hearts!

1. Find a variety of red, orange, pink, and purple crayons.  Choose colors depending on your wedding theme.  To make about 25 hearts you’ll need about 4 crayons.

2. Unwrap all the crayons.  This was the longest part of the whole project, but we suggest, find a good TV show and get to unwrapping!

3. Sharpen all the crayons with a pencil sharpener.  Sharpen until you can’t do it anymore and save the shavings.

4. Pull out two pieces of wax paper.  Sprinkle the crayon shavings over the waxed paper.  Do not sprinkle too much or it will get really sticky.  We over did it a bit the first time.  Make sure to put a towel (old that can be ruined) under the bottom waxed paper on the ironing board.  Use two waxed sheets on top.  Whoops, we ruined our ironing cover and got crayon all over the iron.  Just be aware and be careful!

5. Iron the two sheets of waxed paper together.  Then using a heart template (we made our own), cut hearts out of the waxed paper.  You can do all sorts of sizes.  We just stuck to one size.

6. With your sewing machine, sew the hearts together to create a string of hearts.

7. Hang up somewhere in your house or even better use them at your upcoming wedding!
