Tonight I had a back to school night event and needed to bring a dessert platter. Another mom had already picked brownie bites so I was not in the mood to cook anything else that would most likely go uneaten. I was at Walmart on Sunday and found frozen Eclairs, they sell them at most grocery and bulk stores.
I started putting them on a platter by themselves then thought how can I make these a little more interesting and festive. I had bought a huge bag of Candy Corn, tis the season, for 1.88 at walmart. Placed them under the eclairs and amazed at how quick, easy and inexpensive it can be. One mother actually commented on them so I thought I would include them in today's post. Fun thing to do at easter with jelly beans or any other event. Candy can be very creative!!
Please comment on your favorite ways to brighten up a not so pretty platter.
