Muffins Lunch Idea -12


Muffin graduated kindergarten.We had a very nice graduation ceremony.I did some search on the net for some ideas to create a good graduation lunch.I found a few but i modified almost everything according to my  convenience since i wanted to make it a simple easy task.I still had doubts on how well it would come out so tried to get my thoughts into action the day before.
So here goes the graduation lunch. 
  I came through an excellent idea of creating books out of cookies where they had given the recipe for baking cookies and then topping it with icing and writing on top of it.I felt that is an extensive work so i just took a slice of cheese and folded it into four and again folded the top portion so it looks like a book.muffin doesn't like gel coloring so i wrote "KG-2008" with sprinkles.
  Next pencils out of pretzels.I sharpened the pretzels and showed it to muffin and he said the pencil should have an eraser so i made tiny balls out of muffins "stacker/sticker candy" and poked a little hole in the middle and inserted the pretzel in it.         
        

The diploma wraps were very easy to make.I made a simple 
butter/cheese sandwich without  crusts,rolled it and tied with a thin strip of carrot.  
   












 


   For the grand finale i made a graduation cap as a treat.I used peanut butter cups as a base and hershey's rectangle chocolate and twizzlers for top.
Turnout:Hurray for my efforts.Muffin and his friends of course loved the caps more than anything else. His friends also asked muffin how i made the caps and he said that i just glued everything.Well thats an easy way of explaining how i made it.Anyways the wraps & pencils were gone.The cheese was left and he said it became "mushy" and that has to be noted.So i would give it 5 stars
