Who doesn't love converse shoes, especially when they are in miniature form and they are edible! I had the pleasure of making a cake for a colleague and friend of mine, Kathryn. I decided to do a cute baby shoe, but with a spin! Here is the pattern and 101 on the fondant converse baby shoe!
Cut out your pieces using the pattern found at
Paste everything together using water and small brush |
Refrigerate through each step to set fondant |
Simple and fun! Tempted to try an adult pair!

Ingredients
1 package Oreo Cookies, regular size
1 package Mini Oreo Cookies, for decoration (optional)
1 package chocolate cake mix (mix according to directions on box)
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup butter (1 stick), room temperature
3 3/4 cups powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
cupcake liners
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix packaged cake mix according to directions (do not bake). Line cupcake tins with liner, place a regular size Oreo cookie in the bottom of each liner. Take 1/2 of remaining cookies and chop coarsely and add to cake mix. Fill the cupcake tins. Bake for 15 minutes (or according to box directions). While cupcakes are baking make the frosting.
Cream together butter and cream cheese. Add vanilla, then add powdered sugar slowly until blended well. Chop remaining regular-sized Oreos very fine (I put the cookies in the food processor instead of trying to chop them up super fine and it worked out really well). Add to frosting. After cupcakes have cooled frost and decorate with Mini Oreos.

My cake pops finally are making an appearance! I made these balls over Christmas and they were a huge hit. Sweet and simple to make, and there are so many different decorating ideas! I recommend checking out this link on Bakerella - http://www.bakerella.com/category/pops-bites/cake-pops/ for some different inspiration. Bakerella also has an amazing book (that Santa brought me), and gives you the low down on how its done! You can use boxed cake mix and premade icing to save you time. You will need to purchase melting chocolate (all different colours available at Michaels), sticks, and sprinkles! Happy baking! (helpful hint - corn syrup is helpful when trying to make a pattern with sprinkles on the chocolate coating. You can use a paintbrush to make the design and then dip in sprinkles or something of your choice - check out the one to the left!)
Mix the crumbled cake and icing together into balls, refrigerate |
Best way to display? Styrofoam! |
