Wren and Kanani Make Candy.....Again!

Hey guys, Wrennie here!
What do you think of my new skates?
I think they're pretty awesome!

While I was out trying out my skates guess who showed up!
It's Kanani! Hey Kanani!

She had some seriously cool hair today:
She said her mom has been watching a lot of Game of Thrones recently and wanted to work on braiding so Kanani volunteered! I think she looks gorgeous!

Kanani and I spent a while playing outside but then she wanted to do another candy kit for you guys! So here we are:
Today we did the Happy Kitchen donut kit from Kracie.

Here is the front of the box:
You can see all the cute donuts you can make! We did okay on the decorating.....you'll see!

And here is the back with all of the instructions:
At least there are lots of pictures?

Inside the box was this pouch:

And here is everything inside the pouch:
We got a tray, an empty bag, a shovel thing, sprinkles and six little pouches of powder stuff!

The big pouch had little cut here marks so we did and one half was kind of a mat for the donuts?
 The other half had instructions oh how to make a bear!
Man I wanted to make a bear.

Kanani discovered that if you peeled the big sticker off the back of the box there were lots of picture instructions under it!
And the very first step was to take our tray:
And cut it apart!

Now is was time to get down to business! Here are all the picture instructions for making the donuts:
It was actually really easy to figure out what we were supposed to do!

First we got a little bowl of water and used the scoop to fill up that space in the bottom of the tray:
Next we poured the yellow powder in:

And then Kanani said it was stirring time!
That little shovel is SO cute!

Kanani stirred and mixed and stirred until the powder and the water were all together and we could make balls:
We were supposed to make two even ones......I think we did good!

Next it was my turn with the chocolate:
I'll tell you right now that the vanilla dough smelled good but man this chocolate stuff smelled amazing! I wanted to eat it right out of the tray!

After I was all done stirring, Kanani helped me make two more balls and then we were ready to make our donuts!
All you have to do is push the dough around into the molds there:
And pop them out!
I saved the middle pieces to try and make a bear but it was really hard not to just eat them all up!

Finally it was time for the very best part. Decorating!
Those are all of the instructions for making the icing. You just poured the powders into the tray and mixed in a scoop of water each! It was hard not to accidentally mix the vanilla and strawberry together but we did a pretty good job.

That was all the pouches...or so we thought!
But then I found this purple one! We looked all over the box but didn't see any instructions for it.

So Kanani got brave and opened it and we found:
Cookie crumbles! We might have snuck a few of these before decorating.....

Here are all of our decorating things:


We had chocolate icing in the bag, the cookie crumbles, vanilla and strawberry icing and sprinkles!

Mmmmmmmmmmmm
You guys know how I feel about sprinkles.

This is what our decoration station looked like:
And then we got to work!

I didn't get a lot of pictures of the actual decorating! Mostly because my hands were covered in chocolate. But here they all are:
On top you have my bear and a chocolate donut with icing a sprinkles. Then on the bottom Kanani made the pink one with the dots and then there is a chocolate with icing, and cookie crumbles!

Donut close up:

I love all the different sprinkles!

They were.......kind of good? All the toppings were delicious! Especially the chocolate icing? We ate what was left of that right out of the bag! But the donuts were kind of squishy and really cold.......The dough tasted good though! I just think they would have been better warmer. Maybe!

The best part though was making them with my friend! Here we are with our creations:

Before they got gulped down!

I always love it when Kanani comes over! She's a really special friend :)

Oh! Before I go I wanted to give you guys and update on my catnip:
I've got lots of little seedlings!

I hope this was as fun for all of you as it was for us! Let me know if you still like these candy kits and we'll do another one! We still have a few choices including a bento box lunch. See you guys later!
