Wrigley's Confections Challenge

Wrigley has teamed up with "Sweets Stylist" Amy Atlas and given me (and many other bloggers) an opportunity to create!

How do you use Wrigley gum and confections in your entertaining, celebrating, or DIY-ing?

Here is what they sent me:

They also sent me 3 recipes of Amy's to aid in my creativity. I decided to experiment on my own (although her designs were super cute! There was a dress cookie and a cupcake with a scarf and mittens). My first thought was something sweet for Valentine's Day. Both of my creations are decorated on gluten free yellow cupcakes.

Decorating Ingredients:

-Skittles Original flavor

-Skittles Blenders

-Starbursts Original flavor

Directions:

-bake cupcake in heart shaped foil liner

-frost

-warm starbursts for 10 seconds in microwave and roll out. Cut heart shapes out.

-Use icing to attach hearts in center of cupcake

-arrange skittles around edge of heart

For my second creation I wanted to create cupcakes for Stilettos and Diaper Bags! ;)

Decorating Ingredients:

Shoe: 2 Starbursts (original flavor) rolled out and cut out

Diaper Bags: Starbursts Sweet Fiesta, Life Savers Gummies, Doublemint gum

Directions:

-Make shoe and bags on wax papper. 

-Use icing to secure gum to starburst on diaper bags

-Use Life Savers Gummies to prop up items and use frosting to attach.
