"Happy Birthday to one who has stood the time of time"

For my grandpa's 87th birthday. My aunt asked me to make a cake for him and said to do something having to do with "old" and "history". This covers both. The blocks are made from rice krispies covered with melting candy. No need to worry about making it smooth. Rocks have texture :)

Tinkerbell Fairy Cake

Rice Krispie Dinosaur

I made this so that my little nephew and niece, who are allergic to eggs, wheat and milk, could party at the Dino Party. Rice krispies were made with a milk-free margarine and allowed to set in the Wilton Dinosaur pan. I carefully took it out and outlined the Dino with decorating gels.

Dinosaur

This cake I made for my family's Dino Themed Party. It turned our pretty cute. The body of the Dino is made with the Wilton Wonder Mold pan. The face and neck is a cupcake and the tail - I formed out of marshmallow. The legs are made by just piping icing out from the body. Covered him with stars. Then melted down candy melts and designed spikes on wax paper. Let the spikes be in the fridge for awhile and they will be good and hard but make sure when you are transporting, you pay attention to sun :)

Spiderman vs Elmo : )

My youngest two(5 and 2), both with multiple food allergies, birthdays are one day apart. We combined parties this year, celebrating with their favorite characters, Spiderman and Elmo. I came up with a sugar cookie recipe that is not only delicious to these kids, but passable to everyone else :)

(The recipe will be included at the end if anyone is interested.)

Cookies are pretty basic. Egg shaped cutter. Frost red. Add design. Does take a bit of time to make so many :)

1/4 c milk-free margarine
1/4 c shortening
