Hello internet friends I need a little favor and I was hoping y'all could help a sister out. It's actually not me who needs the help. It's my friend Sheri who sent me the following email:
"My son's birthday is April 1. Since it's April Fool's Day, we always try to do something fun/crazy instead of just cupcakes for him to take to school. Last year we made little hamburgers out of cookies. They came out pretty cute!! We've done dirt cake with worms and a few other fun things. I thought I'd check to see if you had any ideas for me for this year!! I have been looking but haven't found anything that really caught my eye. If you think of anything, or see anything that looks fun, will you let me know?"
I was just about to get my Google on when I thought, "Wait, I have all of these crazy-creative people at my fingertips. I should ask them..."
So here I am, asking all of you... anyone got any good ideas? If you think of anything you can find me trolling around Pinterest. I'll be the one searching for food disguised as... something else.
(Yup, that's just what I did.
And then I started her a Pinterest board called "Sweets in Disguise." Check it out.)
UPDATE:
She went with the candy sushi:
Rice Crispie treats rolled around gummy worms, sliced and wrapped in green apple fruit roll-ups.
Hi Elena! I might be able to help with your friend's request. I recently found this blog: "Kitchen Fun with My 3 Sons"

She does some pretty awesome food projects with her kids. Hope it helps! :~)
Thank you so much for your help!! According to my son, they were a huge hit!! His class is having a bake sale in a few weeks, and the teacher requested that I make them again!! Thanks again for your help. Your blog is so much fun, and right up my alley.
