How cute are these little teacups! And they are yummy too!
I made them today with the kids after church. We had friends over, so there were 6 little kids making them and they did a great job!
You will need:
1 packet of Tic Toc biscuits
1 bag of pink and white marshmallows
1 packet of Freckles
2 rolls of Musk lifesavers (we also used Strawberry Sundae lifesavers)
1 cup of icing sugar
Cut all the Life Savers in half to make the handles.
Mix icing sugar with a little water to make a thick paste.
Lay out biscuits coloured side up.
Put a little paste on the bottom of each marshmallow (on the narrowest end of the marshmallow) and stick to the biscuit.
Put more paste on the top of each marshmallow and press a Freckle onto it.
Dab a little paste onto the Life Saver and press into the side of the marshmallow to make the handle. You made need to hold for a few seconds, but as the paste dries the handles will attach quite firmly.
Leave to dry for a little while and then eat!
They make great party food or as a fun activity for kids to do at a party and then they can take their little cups home.
I've made these for a few birthday parties and they are always a hit - sooo cute! Instead of the freckle I put icing and chocolate sprinkles on the top. Kind of like a cappucino.

These look like fun! I had to look up what 'lifesavers' were and I think the closest thing we have to these in the UK are polos. It looks like everyone enjoyed themselves making these :)
ReplyDeleteRuth, they look like they turned out very well and were appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThose are the cutest! I will have to give them a try. My daughters would love them for tea party treats.
