Edible Animals

For a Relief Society Meeting we had a guest speaker come, Tamara Fackrell. She is a Deseret Book Author
She is also a Mediation Attorney in Utah, public speaker, and a Professor at BYU Law School. She came to speak to us, not about her book, but about relationships with each other, our children and our spouses. She has come up with a way to categorize everyone's method of communicating and relates them to 6 different animals.

I thought how fun it would be to have treats that coordinated with each of the 6 animals. I decided to tackle this project 1 week before so I was in a bit of a time crunch, but this is what I came up with.

Elephant Trunks: Lion Cakes:

Fox Tails:
Zebra Cookies:
Turtles:
And finally ....Swan Puffs
These little beauties took 3 tries to get them right, but I sure like how they turned out :)Tamara did a fabulous job and was extremely entertaining and informative. The treats were a big hit as well. They were a lot of work, but well worth the effort!

Ok, how the heck did you get those puffs to look like swans?? I think you could sell those for weddings. Fabulous job..as usual.
