Final Thanksgiving Weecakies

When I was young my parents always took us for a long car rid in the Fall to see the changing colors of leaves.  I love red and gold and orange leaves and acorns.  I am so lucky to live where there is an abundance of colorful leaves in the Fall.  I used to collect acorn caps to use as cups in a woodland-tea-party setting with my dolls.  So, on a apple-spice cake square, I have recreated Autumn leaves and acorns.  The cake is dipped in white chocolate and the leaves and acorns are molded in colored chocolate clay.  These are pretty small in real life-it all sits on top of a sucker stick.  Beautiful colored leaves and melt-in-your-mouth apple-spice cake truffle.  What more could you ask for?  Yummy!



-Thought you might like to see some more Twig Weecakies.  These are raspberry swirl cake, and the twigs go over the side of the cake square-just some variations of the earlier post. 

Just for Fun: Turkey Weecakies

What would Thanksgiving be without Turkey?  When I saw Bakerella's Turkey Cake Pops last year, I knew that I would have to do them. 
This is Bakerella's design with some modifications.  The cake inside is chocolate, dipped in milk chocolate and decorated with candy corn-I couldn't find the "Harvest Color" candy corn, so I used what was available.  The head of the turkey is a ball of chocolate clay, as is the beak.  The turkey's snood (did you know that thing (according to WikiAnswers) is called a snood?  I always thought is was a wattle.  But wait...Yahoo Answers! says that it is a wattle and only appears on male turkeys.  We could have a great debate on whether it is a snood or a wattle or something else.  Well, anyway back to the description.....)

is an upside-down large heart sprinkle and his eyes are dots of dark chocolate.  These are fun and full of personality.   Gobble Gobble Gobble.  Have a Happy Turkey Day!
