PINTEREST FAIL?

My daughter's birthday was this past weekend, and yet again, I found myself the day before attempting to make cake pops that my daughter requested - owls and ice cream cones, peppermint flavoured. This year she chose the inspirations very seriously, and she was very pleased. I'm not so sure I deserved her admiration. I think it was closer to a Pinterest fail, but you can be the judge! Actually, the ice-cream cones were pretty reproducible, and all tasted great to a pack of 8 year old girls!
Check out Bakerella.com for some really admirable stuff!  Last year was the 2nd attempt with the panda bears. The first year was not recorded, as I think not one survived to be witnessed (not for popularity, but because the cardinal trick of chilling before mounting on the stick was not known to me, and every single Hello Kitty head was skewered through to devastating effect!)
No wonder I was up so late last year - I even made cupcakes for the family party! The last photo was an attempt to fancify the rice krispie cake. I think more even cuts might have improved the aesthetics a little!
