Sculpt French toast for dolly's breakfast!

Our finished versions of sculpted French toast and puff
cereal. The toast and strawberries are made using Sculpey
oven bake clay. The strawberry syrup is red acrylic
paint. I also used red puff paint to show a heavier, creamer
syrup on top of the toast dripping down the sides. The
white powdered sugar was painted on with a thin tipped brush.

        French toast is a dish made of sliced bread soaked in beaten eggs and typically milk, then pan fried. Alternative names and variants include "eggy bread", "Bombay toast", "gypsy toast", and "poor knights" (of Windsor).

Above, I included strawberries, syrup and powdered sugar here to top
our doll's French toast breakfast.

       When French toast is served as a sweet dish, milk, sugar, vanilla or cinnamon are also commonly added before pan-frying, and then it may be topped with sugar (often powdered sugar), butter, fruit, or syrup. When it is a savory dish, it is generally fried with a pinch of salt or pepper, and it can then be served with a sauce. Our doll's version includes strawberry sauce.
       In New Orleans Louisiana Creole cuisine, French toast is known as pain perdu and is most commonly served as a breakfast dish. The recipe calls for New Orleans-style French bread; the batter is an egg-based custard. Common toppings include cane syrup, strongly flavored honey, or fruit syrups; a dusting of powdered sugar is also traditional.

yellow to resemble cereal for a doll's breakfast.
