Mini Brands Krispy Kreme Donuts #4

Arctic temperatures , snow and ice have swept across the United States and have hit us here in Virginia, so in preparation with the usual supplies of ice melt, wood, propane, food, water and other supplies, I made a list of crafts and things I wanted to get done that I have had no time to do in my idle moments. One of those things was this recent Mini Brands Krispy Kreme Donut rounds. I am not fond of the ones that are 'craft' projects like these and I had to look up some YouTube videos to see how people put them together. Weird I know, this - coming from an experienced miniature food artist. To be honest, I found some of the materials a little tricky to work with so if you buy these, get some paper towels, have a moist towel nearby and some toothpicks to touch the product to see if it dries. I had some hiccups with mine, but it turned out OK, nothing to write home about. These cups are perfect for 12- 16 inch dolls like Ann Fitzpatrick and Marley Wentworth, Tyler Wentworth and Gene Marshall and Trent. They might be a little large for Barbie and Ken and Fashion Royalty, but in a pinch they could pass. 

              This is misleading- this is NOT the one I got, it's to show you and example of kind of craft you will be doing with the product. 

What I got when I opened the package-

Mine was #4 so I got a cup, a donut box, a donut bag, a creme filled blank donut,

tongs, whipped cream with nozzle, mini chocolate drizzle, mini caramel stuff to go ontop of the donut and in the cup. The 'hat' is actually a UV light that you dry the items with in between and the paper item on the right are the directions. 

Here are photos of my 'completed' project with Ann Fitpatrick

The books and teacup to the right are also a Mini Brands book covered in another blog post from last year- the flowers were purchased at a craft bazaar, and the statue is from Michael's mini section during Halloween on sale.  Table is
