Frosting ease with Frost Eaze


 Found this nifty little gadget
on the Cake aisle.

oh fun.



I wanted to use it to decorate 
the little cakes 
from the silicone molds. 
It worked just like I had hoped.
 Heat up frosting slightly,
pour into squeezy bottle,
cool a bit,
Frost!





It's worth it for projects like this, 
but I can't see using it for
frosting whole cupcakes.
Not enough frosting.
You'd be refilling it every two cupcakes!



I wasn't over the mOOn
about my overall finished product,
due to lack of practice with
something like this,
but I gave my Self some
wiggle room by saying'
"they're only 1st graders; they won't notice"




Like the Silicone Molds, I will be using the Frost Eaze again.
It also comes with two extra tips for variety.

I wonder how it would work for filling cupcakes?
I've been wanting to master the Frosting Bag
and this is a fun way to get incentive!

HaLLoWeen Silicone Molds


These are the first Silicone Molds I have ever used.
Meh.

The idea is beTTer than the actual outcome.
 I tried using buTTer and Oil for the molds.
 The buTTer just didn't work that well.
Apparently, you have to LIBERALLY douse with Oil 
to get a good release.

I did use the Golden BuTTer Cake Mix
which may have also been the problem.
It's a very thick, FLuFFy batter
which made it difficult to 
place in the molds
and to find a comfortable amount
of baTTer fiLLage.

I feel like it would have worked
mucho better if I had used 
a more fluid batter.

All in all,
I would try them again.
