What's For Dessert

 
Dessert Train

Check out our dessert for tonight!  The kids and I made a train this afternoon.  It is not homemade (unfortunately) but it was constructed by us (using Little Debbies!) and it was a lot of fun!  The inspiration came from a book called Candy Construction and it has some pretty amazing things you can create with candy and food!

 Almost done

 Finished engine

 More cargo

 With a tanker

 More cargo and another tanker completes our train!

    Oh, dear, that is a lot of chocolate! Me want, me want :) What a super fun activity! Usually you only get to build with candy when it's a gingerbread house.

    Happiness,

    My daughter wants a train party for her birthday and this would be perfect. Found you on the HOP and so excited I did.

    Just one question, how do you get everything to stick together? Frosting?
