Cupcakes, Cookies & Pie, Oh, My!

I have enjoyed the earlier books these authors have written and must say that they are very creative when it comes to cupcakes. Who know you could do so much with a cake and candy?
Reading the book is easy so I decided to try one of the recipes – the brownie dartboard. I am neither a baker, nor a decorator so this was a challenge. They state that the recipes are simple in this book, but when I attempted to make the darts, I had some problems. Although, they show enough in the photographs, I had to double the thickness of the feather (fruit rollup) and really play around with the gum drops and spice drops. The sugar coating kept on getting on the fruit.
Don’t get me wrong the dartboard came out nice and people loved it and wanted us (my wife and I) to make them one. It just wasn’t easy for a non-decorator to do; but loads of fun.
