You are attending a baby shower right this very minute. A VIRTUAL baby shower for the adorable Maria and Josh of Two Peas & Their Pod.
You probably already know this couple and their blog for yummy treats like: Golden Grahams S'Mores Bars, Soft Pretzel Bites, and Cinnamon Streusel Pancakes. Their latest creation...
...a new pea for their pod...a baby boy, who is almost here!!!
I'll tell you more about the cake part of these petits fours in another post, but let me show you how to make the pea pods.
You'll need:
- fondant (I used homemade)
- leaf green food coloring
- large and small pastry tips
- royal icing (optional)
{Use the bottom of the small tip to cut fondant for the peas.}
Place on the petits fours. Add vine detail with green royal icing, if desired.
Maria & Josh....we are all so happy for you...and your new little sweet pea!
