Catdog Cake
We're celebrating my grandson's 4th birthday.
I asked him what kind of cake he wanted. He was
supposed to say, "chocolate." But instead
he said "a catdog cake." So, this is what I
came up with.
Cake batter
13x9” rectangular pan
2 small round (about 4”) pans
icing
decorations for cake
Pour cake batter into prepared pans. When cooked, remove from pans
and
cool. Cut sheet cake as shown:
Put one round layer at the top left side of the sheet cake layer.
Cut the other round layer into a square and place on the other side.
Use some of the cake scraps for the ears.
Ice cake with a lighter color of chocolate icing, then use a darker color
to make spots. Use licorice or toothpicks for the cat’s whiskers.
Use a marshmallow for the dog’s nose – cover with the
dark icing. Cut a marshmallow for the eyes and the dog’s teeth.
Use a pipe cleaner and dip in the dark icing,
then put it in the dog side for his 3 sprigs of hair.
