I suppose it didn't surprise me when this little munchkin asked me to make her a hot pink and black zebra cake for her birthday :-)
(Yes, she made this entire "cat" outfit herself!)
At first I was a little overwhelmed as I thought the only way to make a cake like that would be to use fondant and I didn't really feel like trying to figure out STRIPES! :-)
Thankfully, Michael's craft store came to my rescue and I found this Duff Edible Decorating Paper - Animal Prints
on sale for 9.00
The edible paper along with some Betty Crocker pink icing, Duncan Hines frosting and Wilson's zebra candy hearts I was SET!!!! WOOO WHOOOO!!!!
I think she really liked it :-)
I used an 8" cake pan and a Pyrex glass bowl that was about 5" wide.
I had to cut the edible papers a little thinner to accommodate the cake but it was SUPER EASY! (I think it was not as thick because I only used ONE box for the two cakes.)
I just frosted it up, put on the paper, use the easy pre-made pink icing tube and laid on the hearts!
Overall the entire cake cost me around $19.00 :-)
There you have it!
