Cakes:How To Make A Cow Cake


Step 1:
You will need

* 1 Large sponge cake
* 1 Smaller sponge cake
* 2 Fairy cakes
* Buttercream
* Black food coloring
* Strawberry shoelace
* Giant chocolate buttons
* Regular chocolate buttons
* Smarties
* Sugarcraft daisies


Step 2:
Shape the cakes
Trim around the top rim of the smaller cake, then cut a crescent from one side. You should be left with a slightly off-center oval shape. Position this on the nearest edge of the larger cake. It should look like a nose. Cut a third off the fairy cakes, and position above the sponge for the ears.

Step 3:
White buttercream
Fill a piping bag with white buttercream. Using a star nozzle, cover the cake in buttercream stars. Leave some areas blank so you have space for the black icing.

Step 4:
Chocolate buttons
Position two regular chocolate buttons for the nostrils, and two giant chocolate buttons for the eyes. Dab a little buttercream onto the giant chocolate buttons, and stick an M&M to each to give the eyes some life.

Step 5:
Black buttercream
Add some black food coloring to the buttercream and mix it in thoroughly. Fill a piping bag with this black buttercream, and fill in the spaces on the cake with black buttercream stars.

Step 6:
Strawberry shoelace
Use a red strawberry shoelace to make a smiley mouth, and add some sugar daisies to give the cow a little color.
