Turkey day is coming up this week in the US so that means I attempted cute turkey treats - again!
I found the most fun candy corn this year - pastel fruit cremes! I loved the colors and knew I needed to do some fun treats with them so scooped up a bag and promptly forgot about it.
But luckily my kiddo found them and asked to try them.
If you don't like regular candy corn - then you might like these. Very fruity - still sweet but not like traditional candy corn. I also had some white Lindor chocolates that someone gave me which I thought I could use for the turkey bodies (and I love it when I don't have to go buy more stuff for an idea!)
The pastel colors are so pretty!
And since I needed them to sit on top of something - I went with donuts. Baked sweet potato donuts with cranberry glaze, which I thought was perfect for Thanksgiving. Recipe linked for the donuts and the cranberry glaze is just some cranberry jelly mixed with a little milk and powdered sugar until you get a nice glaze-y consistency.
The rest of the turkey is a skittle chocolate, dab of yellow melted candy melt for beak, red sprinkle for waddler, and black edible marker for eyes. Candy corn feathers are attached with white melted chocolate.
The turkeys are perched in little donut nests. Do turkeys sit in nests? Well maybe not but they do look pretty cute all nestled in!
Well are the turkeys cute? Can you make a cute turkey?
Thanksgiving is my fav holiday because it has all my fav foods. Turkey, gravy, stuffing, cranberry sauce, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie - all my comfort foods on one plate! I will definitely be indulging this week! What's your favorite Turkey Day food? And let me know if you think this year's turkeys are cute!
Here are some of my past turkey attempts! Which is your fav??
