Let’s count together…minus three!

Tonight was meringue night… the recipe is really simple: 4 white eggs and 250 gr of confectionary sugar (I used the vanilla one). Work the white and slowly add the sugar until it becomes swollen, dense and shiny. Then put some of it in a sac a poche and prepare the meringues in the shape you prefere (it will be dense enough to keep the shape you want, but keep in mind that the oven will make them swollen a bit more so don’t place them too close to each other on parchment paper). Cook for 1 hour or more if needed (they need to be very dry) at 100°C

This time I choose the pumpkin shape and I colored it with light orange…

Then with some edible markers I drawed some faces, the green top and some yellow lines to give better the pumpkin idea. I think the result is good… in all senses.. gnam.. gnam…

It is almost here!.. only three days and a half for the Halloween party! I am very busy with the preparation but I wanted to share how it is going so we can wait together!

These are some games for the children… for this memory game I combined two different templates.. one is from Tricia Rennea (you can download it from here) … since there was no top for the box and the inside was blank (as the back side of the tiles) I thought it was smart to print one of the pattern I won on Jinjerup instead. I also modified a tiny bit the original scheme to create the top (and make it smaller enough to fit and close the box). Cute, aren’t they?

I also wanted some goodie bags… so I used the set bought on Paper Glitter and I spent the evening cutting, gluing and filling.. this is the result! 

I am very satisfied with the result … they are really cute!!!  And tomorrow I will start with the menu.. Ciao ciao!

Paper Glitter  just finished her last creation and it is now available on her online shop..  with this beautiful kit you can print your very own ladybug themed party … gosh.. if I just had that for Nabiki’s ladybug baptize I could have used it … anyway… it is sooooo cute that I bought it immediately!

This girl is one of my favorite illustrators and I really suggest her for her professionalism, her speed in sending the files and for the beauty and high definition of her drawings. Go to her Etsy shop to view and buy the kit.
