Bedtime Babies Marshmallows!


 Have you seen the S'more Mallows?

They are massively dense.

They are sweet and pillowy.

They are squishy and poofy.

They are also my favorite Jet-Puffed marshmallow!

Plus, since we are super excited to be welcoming our fifth grand baby, (in about 4 1/2 more weeks) I've had baby crafts ideas swirling around in my head. This one is the latest!

These S'more Mallows just make me think of a giant, soft bed.
The perfect napping spot for a sweet new baby!
I was amazed at how quick and easy it was to paint these marshmallows. I laid a paper towel over parchment paper to catch the overspray and used slow sweeping strokes. It dries pretty quickly as well.
First time I've gotten to use my modeling tool set.
I bought it just for the awesome smile tool.
Using flesh-toned fondant, I rolled it into little round baby heads.
Sweet!
I made a simple little fondant blanket using the Cuddlebug embossing folder with the D'vine Swirl design. Rolling out fondant, I used the largest square in the fondant cutter set to cut out the blanket.
Place "blanket" inside the folder and gently press to imprint.
Lightly dust folder with 10x sugar if you're having any problems with sticking. 
 Attach candy pieces to marshmallow with corn syrup.
 To make baby's body, just trim off a piece of marshmallow and...
 ..attach with corn syrup.
 Attach blanket with corn syrup as well. 
These would be sweet party favors at your next baby shower!
