So, I thought and thought on how I could do an April Fool on my 2 and 4 year old, and after searching the internet, this is what I came up with this year!
A dinner of a cake that is actually meat loaf, a pizza that is actually cake and a drink that is actually jell-o! It was easy to make and so FUNNY watching the kid's eat it!
For the pizza cake, I used a cake mix and baked it in a round cake pan. I iced it with red icing to look like the tomato sauce and used a fruit roll up that I cut into circles as the pepperoni. The "cheese" was actually grated white chocolate!
Pretty convincing!
The drink was just red jell-o that I made in a cup, added strawberries, blueberries and a straw to it before it got hard!
For the meat loaf, I baked it in a rectangular cake pan and iced it with mashed potatoes! The kiddos were definitely fooled! I asked if they wanted to eat cake for dinner (which was really the meat loaf) and of course, they said yes!
My daughter taking a sip of her drink . . .
My son taking a bite of "cake" (actually meat loaf) . . .
Smiles all around when they realized that it was an April Fools and that they were allowed to eat cake (that looked like pizza) for dinner!
