Delicious Recipes to Try with Your New EAD Tool

[monica_sweetconsultant]

I just got my EAD yesterday! I have wanted it for a long time and its just as great as i thought i would be. even my kids could use it and they are 7,5,and 4!! Its so easy and fast. anyways, i was just wandering what recipes are used with this tool. most of the ones i have seen i dont have all the tools for. i have the SS kit, the chillzanne bowl, and a few of the new things. i have more on the way but it wont be here before my show on tuesday and i really want to do some different recipes. thanks in advance and God bless you all!

You could make the Touchdown Taco Dip and use the EAD for a sour cream decoration before you serve it. There's also the Streusel Berry Tart where you could accent with Cool Whip.

thanks for the ideas. i forgot about the streusel. the dip sounds like a cute idea to a manly food..lol...

Well, if you would like to know my 7 year old favorite it is green eggs. I made these the last several years for his school to celebrate Dr. Suess birthday. Just make hard boiled eggs as usual, add a little green food coloring and viola!!! The EAD makes it so easy. I also use to decorate big pizza chocolate chip cookies. They look just like they came from the cookie company in the mall.

One of my favorites!I LOVE my EAD! It is honestly one of my favorite products! I've heard somewhere that it "brings out your inner Martha"! It adds a nice touch to any recipe. With all the ideas though, I still love using it for good ole cupcakes! A friend of mine ordered a "cupcake cake" from Wal-Mart - where all the cupcakes are set next to each other and form a shape of some sort and they ice it to make it look like it is a big cake - in other words it's like a big pull apart cake with EASY clean up! My daughter's 2nd birthday is in October and I think I may try that out. I'll let you know if it works

Use your imagination!

You could make the Touchdown Taco Dip and use the EAD for a sour cream decoration before you serve it. There's also the Streusel Berry Tart where you could accent with Cool Whip.

Like Kristen wrote, use it for things that you would normally just "dollop" something. I make a Pumpkin Cake around the holidays (not a pc recipe, but compliments of my step-mom-in-law) and I always fill my EAD with Cool Whip & let everyone "play" with their topping of Cool whip. My kids love it, too!

Tonight I made the Citrus Sunshine Torte at a show, and decorated it w/cool whip using the EAD. It's amazing how an ugly cake, can come alive with the EAD and some cool whip stars!

I love to use the EAD to make fancy deviled eggs. Even it you don't make them for a show, remind guests of this. With the holidays just around the corner, deviled eggs are a great "pot luck" food, for all those family gatherings that are coming up. I mentioned this at my last show and sold 3 ! (out of 7 guests in attendance)

these ideas are great!! i was so excited when i got it that i used some left over sour cream and put it on bread just to play with it (no nobody ate it!). even my husband was amazed. i have a show on tuesday and this one is important. its for a girl i only know through my best friend so this is my chance to break the chain of people i know. she still hasnt given me a recipe but i want to really wow these people. i will definately find a way to put it in there though. thanks again for all the great ideas!!

I have a related question then - I don't have one of these yet, but I have wanted one forever. Is it really as easy to use as it looks? Do the decorations come out really looking like they do in the book? I have bought the pasty bags and tips before and they are always such a mess and NEVER look as nice as they do when the real bakers do it!

 

[jenniferlynne]

I have decorated cakes for 15 years and I finally broke down and bought the EAD. I had always thought "why buy it with all the bags and tips I already have?" Well let me tell you, the filling just flowed out of it so easy and the clean up was so much easier. I love it and keep trying to find reasons to use it now.

 

[Cookie]

It is incredible!I love it. I used to use pastry bags too. But the EAD is so easy my kids ages 9 & 8 can make things look like a pro did it.

I put sour sream on the taco ring at my last show and it was so beautiful and everyone was so impressed (even me!). I sold several.

I agree about the deviled eggs too. Have you all tried the recipe that was in the last catalog. It is the best. The seasoned cream cheese adds a great flavor and I never thought of garnishing eggs with veggies either and the grape tomato halves were a huge hit. They taste great and look so pretty. I wouldn't think of making deviled eggs without them now.

I as well just got mine and love it !!I broke down and bought it !! It is $9.95 on our paper work and supply for those of you considering it !! I bought it so i could make the new chocolate shows. I have used it for anything i can get my hands on ! LOL ! My 5 year old loves it !

 

[luvs2sellit]

I love it as well. One of the tips makes it so easy to write on cakes. I also use to fill devil eggs. Next thing I am gonna try is the fudge.

Easy Accent Decorator Fudge is great!Hi,

I tried the easy fudge recipe (bag of chocolate chips + can of frosting) in the easy accent decorator and it came out great! They were cute bite-size rosettes. Everyone at my show loved them! I've found a new favourite Pampered Chef recipe (next to the hot broccoli dip)

I use my EAD all the time !! I just became a consultant, and at my practice show with my family, I used it to put whip creme on the cookies & creme supreme, and had my m-i-l do it too, she loves it so much, she is buying it!!! I also use it to fill canniloni shells, and canoli, so much easier than spoons!!!

I plan on using it at every show, just to decorate the dessert I will have prepared ahead. It sells itself. I also plan on having one of the guests use it during the show, because it will show how easy it is to use, even someone who has never used it before can just pick it up, and it works. I think I will be selling alot of the !!!!!

easy fudge recipeWere can I find this receipe? Is someone able to post it? I would appreciate it.

Thanks!

Just go back in this same thread. It is posted a couple posts back. I made it this weekend. SOOOOO simple and easy.
I do have one question for others who have made this . Does it stay firm after being refrigerated for a while or will it go back to being soft when out of the fridge? Ours didnt last long enough to test it out!

It does stay firm. I made some before a bridal fair and took some with me to shows for the next two weeks (I had to hide it in between ) and it stayed fine.

 

[luvs2sellit]

Thanks Beth. I still can't believe how simple and easy it was. My husband was quit impressed too. His mom has always made the fudge in the family. I tried one time and it was terrible. He really liked it. I think I will be adding this to my shows.

Ooh, I bet you could use it to fill manicotti too. I'm going to have to get one now!

 

[AJPratt]

I LOVE my EAD!! I use it as a topper item.

I will make one recipe for the show and I bake a brownie pizza when I first arrive. The house smells great and its not something I have to lug around. I bring it out from the kitchen, spread some pie filling and then use the EAD filled with Cool Whip. When I do this I ALWAYS sell three or more!

Use it to make cheese straws

 

[cla519]

What are cheese straws and how do you make them??

 

[bean1294]

I've attached a link so you can see them
http://www.pearsonfarm.com/catalog/cheese-straw-variety-tin.htm

Recipes are endless (can be sweet like a cookie or savory like a cracker)
Here is one
(This calls for the cookie press, but using the star EAD works too).
12 oz. sharp cheddar
1/2 tsp. Cayanne pepper
3/4 tsp. salt
2 sticks butter
2 1/2 c. flour

Grate cheese. Mix cheese, butter, salt and pepper together in mixer. Add flour. Pinch off a large ball of dough and put in cookie presser. Using star design press out straws on cookie sheets. Bake in 350 degree oven for 15 minutes. Do not let get brown.

 

[cla519]

those sound good I'll have to try them. Thanks

Easy fudge recipe

Does anybody have the recipe for the fudge to use with EAD.

 

[Pampered Zoe]

FudgeJust melt one bag of chocolate chips and mix in one container of chocolate frosting. I find that the fudge can set up a little too fast, so after I mix the frosting in, I heat the mixture for about 20 seconds before I add it to the EAD. Makes adorable little fudge kisses!

 

[pampered_chef_amber]

EadWould you believe that's how I got in the business! I have wanted one for
years.One day i was on line and thought i would go the website and see if
it still existed. Next thing I know I am hosting a show and now I am a con-
sultant!!! Don't know how I made it all them years without it I went to
my b/f's family Halloween party and I took deviled eggs in the cs.They all
liked it,hopefully they will attend my open house and order one. Before we
left for the party he said now this is a Halloween party not a pc party. I said
well if I don't meet my goal at my opne house It's all your fault as you caused
me a few sales

 

[luvs2sellit]

I have to point out one thing about the fudge recipe. I was told one bag of chocolate chips and when I tried at home I used semi sweet chips. Well, at my party Tuesday night the host bought milk chocolate chips. Big mistake . The milk chocolate chips do not melt. They just clump and burn. It was a dissaster. Fortunately I had brought my own chips, just in case, and it saved me. I made tonight again with the semi sweet chips and they were perfect. I bought little mini muffin paper cups and put a dollop in each then topped with a pecan.

I made the fudge for a church fundraiser....we sold plate lunches with desserts....I bought the hershey's chips and I was so impressed i had to call my hubby inside to look at it. it was so smooth almost like velvet. There was none left at the end of the day. i didnt taste it because every since i had gall-bladder surgery chocolate makes me sick but my pastor ate like 5 pieces of it so it had to be good!! just thought i would share with the hershey's chocolate though...if you havent used it yet...try it...its great to use!!
