Stella got a
Cool Baker Donut Maker for Christmas and was all gung ho about making them,
unfortunately I was the final victim of the stomach bug that took out every
last one of us and it got me on Christmas day; so Stella had to wait a few days
until I could deal with the mixing, forming, and endless questions that would
go along with this donut making experience.
 |
| Days of asking and she finally gets to make them |
I finally
decided it was time to make the donuts (if she asked again I was going to lose
my mind). I looked at the box, no bake. Well this just brightened my day, until
I opened it and saw that I had to put EVERYTHING together. But before I could
do that, I had to wash everything (definitely not one of my favorite household
tasks to begin with). Much to my surprise I put it together lickety split. We’re
ready to make donuts.
Seriously,
all Stella had to do (I say Stella because she insisted on making them) was put
water into the mix and stir. I was impressed.
 |
| Seriously, it was just add water |
 |
| Stella insisted on doing it all herself |
Then she had
to load it into the donut plunger thing, once again easy. Stella squeezed the
donuts into the molds and then the hard part…waiting the 15 minutes for them to
set.
 |
| Into the fridge |
 |
| Let the torture begin! |
 |
| Teddy can't wait to try them |
Now I have
to clean this thing again? I didn’t sign up for this. The donut goo was so
thick that it came out quite easily, yeah me!!
It was 15
minutes of pure torture for Stella and her hungry customers (Teddy and Maizie).
When the timer went off, I knew there would be no chance of naked donuts (I
tried selling them on the idea…don’t you want them right now?).
 |
| They're ready to be frosted |
Next, onto
mixing the frosting, once again just add water. I loaded it into the plunger
(I didn't want frosting in the grout of the table) and Stella Van Gough got to work.
 |
| Frosting was just as easy |
 |
| Working on her masterpieces |
 |
| Viola!! Ready to eat (in one bite) |
I didn’t
think Teddy was going to be able to stand the wait. They finally got to eat the
masterpieces, all three of them. They said they were good; I’ll take their word
for it.
P.S. This was not sponsored in any way, this was just another adventure in the Kraus House.
How fun! My Abby would love this!
ReplyDeleteLove this. I saw one and decided I was too old for it!
ReplyDeleteIt was so easy Addie could do it.
DeleteSo cute! My 5 year old loves to bake so we got her the easy bake oven for christmas. she was bummed it was just add water since she is so used to baking with me. I still think she would love to make donuts though. So fun!

ReplyDeleteSo cute! My 5 year old would LOVE to make donuts...looks like you all had a great time :)
ReplyDeleteToo cute! My 7 yr old got an Easy Bake Oven for Christmas and has been pestering me to death to use it. We've had so much junk food in the house I couldn't stand the thought of one more cake. But, now I'm feeling inspired. Tomorrow might be her lucky day.
ReplyDeleteHow fun!! My hubby is around donuts every day, and he loves making them into pieces of edible art!
ReplyDeleteYou make me smile! This looks like a fun project for GRANDPARENTS... with all the assembling, washing, waiting! Love it!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun! I have to figure out if any of these things have a GF alternative - we went shopping with Syd's Xmas gift card last weekend and she wanted the donut maker and the cake pop maker but I knew that the included ingredients wouldn't be something we could eat. :(
ReplyDeleteoh man, my daughter would love this. perfect for little hands. she looks so proud of her donuts too! well done!
ReplyDeleteI saw this when I was Christmas shopping and wondered what it was like. Thanks for the run down. I think my daughter would enjoy it.
