Happy Lotto Day!

If you haven’t been paying attention, tomorrow the Mega Millions jackpot is up to $540,000,000. Yes, that’s right…540 MILLION dollars!! I’m not usually a lotto person, but I figured it would be fun to buy some tickets. I even used my dad’s lucky numbers that he always uses when playing lotto (though ironically he has never won).

As you may know, I always have cake on the brain. So, I thought of a cute dessert to serve if you are having a party to watch the lottery drawing. I didn’t get a chance to make it, but I figured I’d share anyways in case someone wanted to try it.

So when I think of a lottery drawing, this is the machine that comes to mind:

To make your own, all you need to do is take a round fish bowl and fill it with white cake balls. A bowl like this would be perfect.

And then you can make white cake balls, similar to the bridal cake pops I made a few months ago, minus the sprinkles and sticks.

To have them look like lottery balls, write numbers all over the cake balls once the chocolate has dried.

You can use a food dye pen. I’ve done some research, and people seem to like the

AmeriColor Gourmet Food Writer pens. They have gotten good reviews.

And Voila! You have a cute, lotto-themed snack to serve as you anxiously await the numbers being called. Good luck, everyone!
