Tiny Teddy Racing Cars

Having just posted a recipe for very delightful Tic Toc Teacups, I wanted to put up an option for those of us who have boys! There are a few ideas out there but this one has to be my favourite!

As I have said previously, sweet foods don't really feature much in our house outside of parties and even then sparingly! This one is a good option for a lolly bag though as they are not too big and are a bit more fun than a lot of the normal sickly sweets on offer! Not to mention that they are really cute and easy to make!

Check out these little dudes.....



How cute are they!! And ridiculously easy to make!

What you need:

1 pack Arnotts Tiny Teddies
2 packs Mini Mars Bars or Mini Milky Ways
1  x 250gm pack of Smarties, M&Ms or Skittles
60gm bar of plain milk chocolate (as the glue)

1) First things first,  you need to gently push the Teddies in to the chocolate bars. If you have any difficulties, you can make a small hole using a spoon or knife to help you out.

2) Lastly, use a teaspoon to carefully dab a small spot of chocolate on the side of a Smartie then gently press the Smarties in the position of the wheels! Complete them all and you are done! How good is that!



A bit more boy friendly and definitely loved by all!

I have seen these done at a few parties but I love this version where they are used as cake toppers....



Maybe it is the colours, maybe it is the fact that you can make them ahead of time then quietly put them on the cake last minute...not sure, just LOVE it! Thanks for the cake idea Joey's mom!

Have a great weekend everyone....
