If your little one has seen you or the baker in your family use a pastry bag to decorate cakes and cupcakes, she’ll probably love this unusual pretend pastry bag, cake stand and cupcakes that can be stacked in dozens of combinations. We usually steer clear of pretend sweets and fake food, but cupcakes are so ‘big’ they certainly reflect a trend that preschoolers have to notice. We think the turntable cake stand will have lots of use in play kitchens and even for serving up the real things. In fact, we suggest you do exactly that. Mix up a simple cupcake batter with your junior chef and decorate them with or without a fancy pastry bag. Real cooking is a wonderful way to introduce kids to the science and joys of cooking. The pretend Pastry Chef is marked 2 & up. We think preschoolers will like it even more.
