It's a Boy!

Saturday I attended my oldest step-son and his wife's baby shower. It was a very nice well attended event. She is due May 16th and we already know it is a boy. It was a teddy bear theme and I made each of the little favor boxes (40 in all) and filled them with packages of teddy grahams.




I also tried to make cake pops for the first time. First I tried them with the wilton bear shaped pan and that was a total disaster. When I dipped the bears in the chocolate their heads would snap off. It was not pretty so I settled on doing the round cake pops but I could not get my chocolate to coat evenly. I will try again soon. I have to revisit Bakerella's web site for another tutorial. I did find this cute cake pop stand at Michaels though that added just the right touch.
