I have a lot of childhood Easter memories, but I don’t have a strong connection to Easter as an adult. The only real reason it’s on my radar still is because it’s Manda’s most favorite holiday of the year.
We have both been really busy and stressed, so we kept it low key, and I suggested we have a picnic in the park with friends.
For the picnic, I wanted to make kitty donuts, following the instructions from My Paper Crane. I have a mini donut maker that is basically like a waffle iron and makes very cakey donuts, so I decided to use that for my project. I kind of forgot HOW MINI the donuts really are, so my kitties turned into bunnies since the almond-ears were so big compared to the donuts.
I used melted chocolate chips, but should have thinned them out with something, because my chocolate was rather thick and difficult to work with, leaving me with some really mutated bunnies. PLUS, I used a store-bought gel icing for the faces, and it was a HOT HOT MESS! WELL, whatever, IDGAF! Maybe I’ll try with regular-sized donuts next time!
Aww! They’re cute 🙂 I’d eat em!
They are adorable! 🙂
They’re super cute! I bet they were really yummy! I always have a similar string of events when I try to make fancy looking baked goods. I always decide it doesn’t matter and I tried, which is better than nothing!
Agree! As long as they turnout relatively edible, I’m really okay with it!
Even more awesome because they turned out a bit wonky-zoid 😛 he he, made me smile!
I do hope to improve my icing/decorating skills one day….!! 😛
OMG! Lovums XD
Awwww, they’re really cute and DO look like bunnies! I hope you had an
enjoyable time. I love checking in with your blog because it’s so cheerful
and colorful.

OH my gosh!! HAHAHA. It would be like, “See everything I’m doing? It’s wrong, so don’t do it that way!” 😛
OMG! Manda is lucky. Those look so good!! And so cute!!
I have to remember to bust out the mini donut maker more often!
