    My 5 year old son is having an exotic animal party… I need to make a cake. I was thinking Lizard? Gecko? Chameleon? Any advise on which book might have a guide on how to make one out of sugar craft paste?? I’m quite good at modelling – but need either a detailed pic or a guide!

    Does anyone know of a Recipe/Guide on how to make Chicharrones. I know a little bit but not enough to give it a try. Just the basic; salt, pepper, pork rind with a little fat…. Can anyone help me out?

    Chicharrones recipe (pork cracklings)

    2 lbs pork rind or skin [trim most of the fat and discard]
    1 tsp salt
    2 cups water
    Cooking oil for deep fat frying

    Cut pork rind into 2-inch squares. sprinkle with salt, spread on cookie sheet in one layer and bake in a 250 F oven for 3 hours.

    Cool and set aside in covered jars until ready to use. When needed, pour oil to about 1/3 the depth of the pan. Heat 5-8 minutes on medium high heat. Fry pork rinds until they puff up [about 3-5 minutes].

    Drain and serve with a dipping sauce which is a mixture of 2 Tbsps vinegar, 1/8 tsp salt and 1 clove crushed garlic. [Dash of black pepper optional.]

    Serves 6

    i remember making small christmas trees out of lolly mint leaves but i cant find a how to or anything like that to make them and not sure how to go about to so.
    i have looked all over the net for something but have come up short
    i would like pictures as im planning to do this for my mothers group and need for them to be able to take home the recipe.
    i would like it to be edible, it was just mint leaves and a sugar like “glue” that would help them stick together

    Make a tabletop Christmas tree. Purchase a small silk evergreen tree at a craft store, and use a hot glue gun to attach mint leaves and pinecones to the branches. Attach dried moss or a lace doily to the base of the tree.

    I found a recipe guide for my project in the internet. It involves mixing sulfuric and nitric acid. What would happen if i combine the two?
