What a cute idea…and so easy, which makes it even cuter! Now, if I can find a Dr. Seuss hat to wear while we eat it, that would be perfect!
Yes! A Dr. Seuss hat would be perfect!!! You’ll have to check the dollar section at Target, that’s where we got ours!
That is adorable! Seriously, I don’t know if I could eat that cat. He’s way too cute! Of course, my boys would eat him in about a minute!
My kids don’t get a lot of sugary treats so they had no problem at all! Ha! But when my son turned 2 he cried and wouldn’t eat his birthday cake because it looked like his friend Muno from Yo Gabba Gabba!
yum!
That’s adorable!
Oh my I love it!
Fun! Think I will do this with cupcakes for my story hour craft class. So cute!
Darling!
Super Cute!
