GOODe Project: A Very Veggie Project


By GOODEness Gracious (Visit website)



We are gearing up for a REALLY big day... I'll give you a hint:

VeggieTales, VeggieTales, VeggieTales, VeggieTales!




Broccoli! Celery! Gotta be

VeggieTales!




Lima beans! Collard greens! Addie's Three!
VeggieTales!

Cauliflower! Sweet and sour! Half and hour!
VeggieTales!



Plans are in the works for a very veggie birthday at the end of July. For MONTHS we have had the following conversation:

"Mommy, can I have a Bob birthday cake?"

"Sure!"

"Mommy, do you want a Larry birthday cake?"

"Why not?" (My birthday is two days after Miss Add)

"Daddy, do you want a Junior birthday cake?"

"Yes!"

So we have decided to do a combo Bob/Larry cake with very veggie cupcakes that spell out "Happy 3rd Birthday Addie".

I have been scouring the net to find some inspiration for these little cupcakes.

I found this perfect starting point over at www.cakemiracle.com:



I heart the little characters!!!

So it gots me thinkin'. 

My fam is not a fan of fondant... we're buttercream kind of folk... so, I thought why not make the figures out of polymer clay and Add can play with a new set of veggie pals afterward.


So, I started with Bob and Larry...


First I had to condition my clay for 2 minutes--which consists of working the clay until it is soft and pliable.


Then I formed Larry's body.


Then added his eyes and nose :)


Finished up his eyes...


Then added his cute little mouth with his tooth.


On to Bob...


Same simple steps :)


I can't WAIT for her to see these little guys.


Then I finished off with Bob's greens :)


Ta Dah!


I plan on adding toothpick holes on the bottom of each figure before baking...

These were so simple and fun, I can't wait to make the rest of the gang! I know I will make Junior and probably Laura... maybe Mr. Lunt and Pa Grape... oh! And, Madam Blueberry... This is going to be fun! Stay tuned :)
