This is the link to the recipe. It was a big hit. It would be fun to make for any tropical themed party.

Oyster Cookies

These cookies were made for a beach themed Vacation Bible School. They are really easy and very cute.

First, take 2 mothers coconut cookies. Smear one with pink icing. Place a yogurt raisin on the frosting. Place the other cookie on top with the backs touching. Using a black gel icing pen draw the eyes.

These cookies are fun for any beach themed party. Enjoy!

School Bus Treats

Another easy and fun treat. I made these for the last day of school 2011. The kids, and their teachers really enjoyed them.
To make these you need:

Rice Kripy treats
yellow candy melt
Hershey Bar
mini Oreos

1.Cut a small square out of one corner of the rice krispy treat.
2. Melt the candy melt in a bowl, in the microwave. 2 minutes on 50%. stir. If not completely melted then microwave for 30 seconds intervals, stirring after each, until smooth.
3. Dip one side of the treat into yellow candy  melt.
4. Break a Hershey chocolate bar into rectangles.
5. Place one rectangle of chocolate on the top of the treat like the side windows of a bus.
6. Place 2 mini oreo's on the bottom of the treat as wheels.
7. Let the candy melt harden.
8. Enjoy.

2 box cake mixes

3. lightly frost the top layer.
4. Apply the fondant so that it overlaps one end of the cake like a popcorn bag.
5. dampen the fruit by the foot and apply in strips the length of the cake.
6. Insert the caramel corn into the end of the cake where the fondant overhangs.
