Servings: 10-12
Ingredients:
2 baked 8 or 9-inch round cakes, (flavor of your choice)
5 to 6 cups yellow frosting (white or vanilla ready-made frosting)
Black shoestring licorice
2 chocolate mint candy patties
Yellow Food Coloring (paste or liquid)
Instructions:
Bake the cakes following the cake box instructions for 8 or 9-inch round cakes. Let cakes cool completely.
Layer and frost the cakes. Make the sunglasses out of two mint patties and licorice, then add a big licorice smile.
TIP: For vibrant yellow colored icing, use yellow paste food coloring (which is available at party-supply stores, or can be purchased at cake and bakery supply stores) to mix in with the ready-made white or vanilla frosting. Keep in mind that a little paste gives a lot of color.
Makes 10-12 servings.
