I saw a picture on the front of the Crate and Barrel catalog that had some cute pumpkin shaped treats and I thought they were so cute that I wanted to make them. I went to find the pan but it cost $32.00 so I bagged that idea. I knew I could come up with something similar for much cheaper. So I decided to look for a mini bundt pan. I couldn't find one anywhere. Then the other day we were at JoAnne fabrics of all places and they had a pan that I was looking for. Who would have thought. So I waited until Friday to get the pan because I had a 50% off coupon that day. I got the pan I needed for $5.00. I was thrilled. What a bargain. These are mini pumpkin shaped carrot cakes with cream cheese frosting. They didn't turn out as cute as I imagined but I thought they were pretty good for a first attempt. The next time that I make them I will use a little thicker frosting for the leaves. I also think I will buy a cinnamon stick to use for the stem instead of the raisins that I found in my cupboard. I can't wait to eat them. I imagine they will taste pretty good. Happy October!!!

Congrats Heather! I can't wait to see the cute little fella! Boys are so fun! If we ever get a girl I don't think I would know what to do with her! All we know is little boys around here! :) Glad to hear that you are feeling better.
You are so creative Heather! I love the pumpkin idea. They really do look delicious.
Mmmmm! They are cute AND look delicious! ;) If you are ever looking for awesome pans, etc., you should try Marshall's or Ross. They always seem to carry fun things like that at a great price.
Wow!!!These look scuptious.
P.S. you spelt my name wrong on "Blogs you Watch"-Shalron :)
