Thank's so much,

I just used my normal buttercream recipe & added 1tsp ground cinnamon & 1 tsp cinnamon extract...

For the fondant I usually make marshmallow fondant but was using Wilton's and wanted to mask the taste but also wanted color and texture for the potato skin so I just added cinnamon (& a little oreo crumbs) to the fondant, once it was covered I brushed the potato with cinnamon sugar to give it a more natural potato look...it was a huge hit.

Good job!!!  That is pretty cool.  Cinnamon buttercream?  Cinnamon fondant?   I am intrigued as I love cinnamon!  Do you have recipes for these that you are willing to share?  I would love to try them!
