5.0 out of 5 stars Works just like the pictures on the box!, December 26, 2008

This review is from: Easy Bake Decorating Pen Kit (Toy)

Rarely does any toy live up to the images of delighted children printed on the product packaging, but the Easy Bake Decorating Sensation Frosting Pen does just that. Right out of the box on Christmas Day, my 8-year-old daughter decorated a dozen cupcakes with the pen. She was thrilled with the results, and proudly served the cupcakes to our whole family. She even talked about having a cupcake party for our 5-year-old's birthday in January.

The Easy Bake pen is very simple to use, and the design eliminates a lot of the mess that comes with cake decorating. Instead of bags, the pen uses frosting cartridges which are threaded on one end to allow attachment of different tips. There are three cartridges included, along with four decorating tips. The cartridges are easily inserted into and removed from the pen, allowing for quick color changes. Tips screw on and off easily, too.

Fill a cartridge, add a tip, attach the cartridge, and press the button. It's that simple. The frosting takes a few seconds to get down to the tip, but once it does, the flow of frosting is smooth.

I'm no professional, but I've decorated many birthday cakes using a Wilton cake frosting set. One of the most difficult parts of cake decorating for me was mastering the continuous pressure needed to produce a uniform line of frosting. This can be especially tough for kids, too. The beauty of the Easy Bake pen is that it applies the pressure for you. Using a tiny gear and motor, the pen slowly moves the plunger in the frosting cartridge, creating a nice continuous flow of frosting at the press of a button. This allowed my daughter to focus on making designs, without frustration. The included tips are the same standard shapes I have in my cake decorating kit, so she can make designs "just like mom."

One of my favorite things about the pen, and one which really cuts down on the mess, is the way the cartridges are filled. The pen comes with three discs, each with a threaded hole in the center, which fit into standard ready-made frosting containers. (A container with a lid is also included for homemade frosting.) The disc is placed into the frosting container and the threaded end of the cartridge is attached to the hole in the disc. By pulling on the plunger, the frosting is drawn up into the cartridge from the cup, like a big syringe. My daughter was able to do this easily after only a little help from me to get started.

We tried the pen with both ready-made and homemade frosting, and both worked equally well. Cleanup is very easy as the cartridges can be disassembled completely. The pen unit can't be immersed in water, but it appeared to be completely sealed, and wiped clean easily.

We had a little extra frosting in one of the cartridges, so we put the whole thing in the fridge so my daughter can do some more decorating today, and we don't even have to get out the frosting!

Overall, I'm very impressed with the Easy Bake frosting pen. My daughter had a ball using it, and can't wait to do more. I like that she can use it without help, and that it cuts down on the mess and is easy to clean. If your kids love doing things in the kitchen "just like mommy", they'll love this toy!

I purchased the Easy Bake Decorating Pen for my 2 grand daughters (aged 4 and 2 years.) We used it together to decorate cup cakes. The 4 year old had no problem using it (the button is very easy to push while decorating.)The 2 year old also used it with a little adult assistance. She kept saying "My turn! My turn! The best part of the toy is the different tips...the 4 year old loved making different designs. Also,it was very easy to clean. You can add food coloring to the white frosting and decorate for any holiday. I would recommend this toy as a great holiday gift.

Our daughter and her friends find the Easy Bake frosting pen an utterly addictive new way to decorate home made and store bought baked goods. It's easy for their little hands to hold and the tips allow them to create whatever designs their imaginations envision. This past weekend they did cupcakes topped with aliens and butterflies.

So if you are looking for an activity to do with your daughter (alone or with friends) Easy Bake's Decorating Sensation Frosting Pen will come to your rescue. It provides hours of yummy fun.
