Rice Crispy Treat Recipe

Rice Crispy Treat Sculpture designed by Isabel Sanchez , Lead Instructor, NYC Cake Decorators

Rice Crispy Treat sculpture is a wonderful technique to add to any sugar artist's repertoire. Isabel, Lead Instructor, has hand molded cartoon characters, wine bottles, and cars from rice crispy treats. Here is her fool proof recipe.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) of butter or margarine
10 oz. bag of marshmallows
6 cups of rice crispy cereal

Using a conventional oven, melt the butter or margarine in a double boiler. Stir in marshmallows until soft. Add the rice crispy cereal and stir until all the cereal is covered with the marshmallow mixture.

Prepare two pieces of plastic wrap over your work surface. Drop the mixture onto the plastic wrap and cover tightly. Use additional plastic wrap if necessary.

To learn how to sculpt your own figures from rice crispy treats, contact Isabel or the NYC Cake Decorators Meetup for details. Happy Crafting!
