Your
road needs to be neat and to show definition so we need to create an
edge of stones. Enter the mini marshmallow and the best glue ever –
I give you “Carnation cook with caramel”
(in other words condensed milk with added caramel) I've not seen it
in smaller cans than 397g but it's not as expensive as buying a jar
of posh caramel sauce – it makes great glue.
Now you know what the paintbrushes are for – one for each of your
cheflets and in order to prevent any dispute it might be more
practical to give each of them a small dish of caramel. You'll be
able to pick up the brushes in your preferred “£1” shop.
Using the “glue” paint a line either side of the road. The
marshmallows can then be glued into place. It matters not if the
glue strays further on to the board - so not a problem for small
hands – it will be covered soon enough with grass and soil!
You can buy bags of pink and white mini marshmallows so you could add
more colour by alternating pink and white edging.
The story so far, a board each with a piece of road with edging
stones and a bag of desiccated coconut grass.
The next step is for the cheflets to create the soil. Each should
have a chocolate muffin and a plastic food bag. Place the muffin in
the bag, secure the top and crumble into soil.
Back to the paintbrush - paint either side of the road with the glue
– again it doesn't matter if they stray onto the cloth with the
glue or grass or soil but they do need to bear in mind that their
board should stay in its place.
Your cheflets can now scatter their coconut grass and muffin soil
where they may on their respective boards.
