My four year old has been beggin to make them as well - and who wouldn't since they make it look so easy on TV. Anything might be easy if it is all prepped for you by a staff! I will hold my ground to not make them. She also wants to make the Moose & Z little pillows they demonstrate, like we all just have 20 different colors of felt laying around the house! I need to turn off the TV!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413611645203439.post-48144261426759020012010-09-23T09:43:31.304-04:002010-09-23T09:43:31.304-04:00Fortunately, I have not been asked to make those d...Fortunately, I have not been asked to make those dreaded cupcakes yet, but I did however, have to cave to making the Mr. Sun cupcakes on the back of the betty crocker cake mix box! $15 later and 12 sun cupcakes with candy pieces and black icing for glasses, no one wants to eat a single cupcake. But the joy of seeing my three year old enjoying the baking and decorating process with mommy was priceless. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413611645203439.post-27843006940899151762010-09-23T09:25:57.468-04:002010-09-23T09:25:57.468-04:00When I was a kid, my mom and I baked together a lo...When I was a kid, my mom and I baked together a lot. One fall we decided to make a blue ribbon recipe from one of her cookbooks—pumpkin cookies. I love pumpkin and all things spiced, but these cookies were awful—wrinkly, cardboard-y mush. Yet to this day, whenever we talk about baking together, we laugh about those pumpkin cupcakes. You watch, those Dora cupcakes will be one of your daughter's fondest memories! Ironic, isn't it?Kelly G.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413611645203439.post-8025726907154965332010-09-23T07:47:31.958-04:002010-09-23T07:47:31.958-04:00My 2 1/2 year old daughter did the same to me!

I am glad I had the idea to buy the cupcakes already baked from the deli in the grocery store (non-iced) because I knew she would not have the patience to wait through that whole process. So, after all the mess and stress put into decorating, she ate one and never asked for anymore. What a waste and no, it did not go as easy as they made it seem!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8702413611645203439.post-40462738236515104502010-09-23T07:14:47.546-04:002010-09-23T07:14:47.546-04:00Thank you!
