Even with it being after Christmas, and 51 posts for December at this point...I still have more Christmas!!!
The next few posts are some of the edibles and craftables I pulled together for the holidays.
First is this cute little tree cake (about 10 inches tall) that PB helped me make and decorate.
It was from a set of vintage pans I picked up from a thrift a few years back. The instruction sheet was included and had a recipe for making just enough batter for one complete cake tree. We actually wound up making two of these trees for different functions because they come together pretty quickly and are fun to decorate. I bet the same idea could be accomplished with 3 small round pans. Maybe a potted meat tin, a canned chicken tin, and a large tomato can with only half of it filled with batter? Or for fancy folks 3 small cake pans in graduating size.
What a cute cake, Mary! It does look like it would come together quickly and be fun to decorate!
ReplyDeleteWhen we made the second one we covered it with lots of those tiny round sprinkles in red, green, and white. It has a lot of decorating possibilities. Dye the cake batter green or ice it in white and tint the coconut green, and any sprinkles are a go! Maybe even a pink iced tree "flocked" in white coconut and silver dragees!
