Popin' Cookin' Soft Cream Pt 2

Silvy here, reporting for the continuation of our experiment :)

So the last you saw was on the cream in the piping tube. We started making ice creams! Trust me, it's harder than it looks!! Especially when we have giant hands that are unused to creating tiny items.

The silly mistake I made here was to snip off the tip a wee bit too big, so our works ended up looking rather clumsy :(

Here's how it looks like, with Spire holding it up to the camera

I call this the wafer boat, and our task is to fill this up and decorate it as creatively as we could. Well, we tried anyway haha.

So first, according to the illustration (because we couldn't read Japanese) was to pad the bottom with some wafer bits, which we did.

Time to fill up the boat! This was pretty fun, since it doesn't really require absolute precision skills! :D

So once the base has been covered, Spire proceeded to decorate the top...with swirls! :D

Yay one is done! Of course, it's not exactly perfect or awesome at the moment, but the basic boat is done anyway.

Creative-time! Spire continues by adding Hershey-like drops to the boat. This was fun, though the cream was pretty thick that it became fiddly to get the shapes the same for all.

Oh noes, one side of it drooped! :( But no worries, we had something worked out just for that in the end, you'll see :D

Spire sez: By this point, the thing kinda looked like a sea slug :P

See? Sprinkles and wafer sticks make the boat looks nicer now! All right all right I'm probably exaggerating that a bit, but it's the best we could do! Not bad for two beginners on these fiddly sweets XD

Now that the boat is somewhat done, let's move on to the next sweet. It's time for some soft cream on cones! It's now my turn to start first, and it was HARD. I couldn't stop laughing to the point that my hands were really shaky.

Hmmm....Pink poop?

My attempt looks weird, and it made me want to redo the whole thing from scratch! :(

And the Spire had her turn, and check out how she started hers! It goes to show my creative thinking has just gone down the drain when I started on mine *facepalm*

So we see Spire hard at work with that teeny tiny ice cream of hers :D

Yay the ice cream is done, complete with a stick of wafer stuck to its side too! :D

I didn't like mine looking so weird and ugly, so I tried redo-ing it again. Now it looks like a gigantic sized ice cream hahaha. The one on the left is done by Spire and the one on the right is mine. Yes, both have been sprinkle-fied! :D

And onwards we go to our next ice cream creation! This time it's wafer ice cream. This one was a wee bit more annoying to get it done right cause we totally didn't follow the instructions....much. Hahaha

So I snapped the wafer...only to realize that I should have used the plastic spatula that was included in the set. Now it looks rather ugly :(

We staaaaared at the wafer trying to figure out what to do with it, so here's some experimentation!

Pink flower atop the wafer, decorated with sprinkles? Okay, worth a shot!

So we decided to stick the wafers together (using a dab of the same cream to stick them together) and now it looks like a slipper.

More sprinkles! At that point of time we had really far too much sprinkles so why not add some glamour to the creations? XD

So after a couple of cursing moments, a dash of creativity, and a whole load of fun and laughter, we present to you the final end results of the Popin' Cookin' Soft Cream!

Ta-dah!!! The dishes are served :)

My stomach wasn't feel all too well when we were getting this done so Spire had about 90% of the sweets displayed on the table. Well, I took the ice cream that I made anyway. And somehow the sweets didn't agree with Spire's tummy so she ended up in the toilet for a moment. Whoops! :x

My ratings? Not bad for a DIY kit but definitely not great for kids, and the taste isn't that good either.

Spire sez: If your kids/selves have decoden skills, you might enjoy this more, I think the taste was a bit off because the kit was a little close to expiry but otherwise the overdose of cream-stuff probably isn't good for you anyway.
