Make Delicious Easter Deserts for Dolls

       Supplies needed for the following doll sized deserts include: decorative Easter papers, puff paints, Sculpey (oven bake clay), white school glue, cardboard, tiny carrot mold (optional), and a variety of acrylic paints.

sugar cookies displayed on a doll plate.

       Faux Easter Egg, sugar cookies for dolls are made by cutting out the colorful printed egg scrap paper and gluing it down to thin cardboard. Trim the cardboard to the same size of the printed eggs and then use puff paints to "ice" each cookie to them a 3 dimensional appearance.

been painted with a rainbow and puff paint icing.

To make the two Easter sheet cakes for your dolls as shown above the below: 
  1. Stack several cut rectangles from cardboard on top of each other with white school glue between until the cakes are the depth that you wish; ours are approximately 1/2 inch.
  2. Then take this stack and glue it to a slightly larger cardboard piece cut and decoupaged with scrap paper; this will be the plate for your cake's display. 
  3. Shape a cross from Sculpey and bake it according to the directions on the box. 
  4. Do the same for the carrot cake only shape or mold a cute carrot to go on top of the cake like the one pictured below. 
  5. Paint the cakes with acrylics and puff paints. The cross sheet cake has a background icing painted like a rainbow with puff paint dotted accents in the same colors. The cross is left bright white. The carrot cake's icing is brown like a garden's soil and dotted with tiny green, yellow and lighter brown puff paint icing. The faux carrot is painted orange and green.
