Thanksgiving Turkey Edible Arrangement!
Welcome to Pins and Things. Today we're going to be making this edible arrangement for thanksgiving. So cute
so, so cute
We're gonna jump right into this project so a list of all the things that you're gonna need will be in the description below
So the first thing I'm gonna do is take a medium sized round
pumpkin and cut off the bottom to make it level. We just don't want it to be wobbly. Now
we're gonna take this butternut squash that looks kind of like a turkey head and place it right there by cutting it
I'm cutting it at a slight angle just so that it goes
with the pumpkin. I'm gonna slice away a little bit more to make it rounded to fit onto the pumpkin better
That's fit's pretty good I'd say, you can see like that
We're gonna take a hammer and a small nail to be able to make a few spots where we want the toothpicks to go into
To hold the head on. Now
I'm just taking my toothpicks and
Inserting them in. I kind of tried to do them all the same angle so that we can just push them in the right way
And not having all going in different directions. This looks like a dangerous thing
I would like to get this thrown it out
Oh my goodness. The next thing
I'm going to do is just place it where I want it to go and kind of push down a little bit
And now I've got a couple holes I'm going to take my nail and make them a little bit deeper
And this is really just to make it easier for the toothpicks to go in and I've made sure to wash this nail real good
Okay
That's gonna look so good
Just
squash that squash
So for the face, I'm gonna start with some white candy melts
And I like these because you can make them into any color you need
I'm going to use red first and make the little gobbler hanging down anything on the turkey
I just melted the white candy melts 30 seconds at a time in microwave until it was shiny
And I stirred it up, added some food coloring and now I'm gonna use a baggy to pipe the face onto the turkey
I'm going to be doing the exact same thing with all of my different colors of melted chocolate
There's our little gobble gobble. That's what I call it. I don't know what it is
I'm using black candy melts for the eyeballs, but you can also just use chocolate chips. Now that our turkey body is done
We are going to move on to preparing of the fruit. After cutting out the edges of the pineapple now
I'm just gonna make some thicker slices of a pineapple here. Now
I'm going to use a leaf cookie cutter, and I'm going to cut my pineapple into that shape
I'm cutting the pineapple in a way
that's the hardest part the core is at the very bottom of it, so it'll be easier for people to eat
And it'll be easy to stick the skewer in and it will hold its shape really well. Now
I'm gonna cut open my cantaloupe and cut out the seeds and scoop some balls out
All right, I think it's ready to put this thing together
I didn't put cantaloupe on first just because I want to be able to put the cantaloupe on the top and it's a little bit
softer so once I poke it in, I don't want to be moving it around a lot. I think that that is good
I'm gonna put a cantaloupe on the top of each one and poke this way in here
I went ahead and evenly spaced these skewers and now i'm just gonna take my
pineapples and poke them on and I already have holes ready to go
I love it. Didn't that turn out amazing? Oh my goodness
I am in love with this. It's so cool and guess what? It's a Pins and Things original. That's right, I am proud of it. It's so cool isn't it?
