Planning a Mad Hatter's Tea Party? These dainty little edible teacups will certainly fit right in! Indeed, these treats are ideal for many party themes, such as princess, afternoon tea or fantasy parties. They're easy to make as long as you can get hold of the ingredients and if your children are old enough to help out, it will take even less time to put these edible wonders together.
Ingredients
The amounts are dependent on how many of the edible teacups you're planning on making:
- Ice cream cones, round; choose ones with wide mouths––depending on the brand, they may even be referred to as cups
- Smooth round cookies; often shortbread style cookies are round with a raised edge, making them perfect for serving as an edible saucer
- Gummy ring candies
- Decorator's icing
- Treats to fill the edible teacup, such as candies, chocolates, nuts or tiny wafers, etc.
Tips
- When cutting gummy candies, you can make it easier by dipping the knife into hot water to prevent it from getting too sticky.
- If making your own round cookies, make sure that they are both smooth and very evenly circular or you risk spoiling the effect of them being a "saucer".
- To make the edible teacup look like coffee, hot chocolate or your other favorite drink, add ice cream in the associated flavor and serve immediately to guests.
Things You'll Need
- Serrated knife (bread knife)
- Cutting board and sharp knife for cutting candy
