Dog Bone Birthday Cake
You can use this cake for dog themed birthday parties (Clifford the Big Red Dog, Blue's Clues, Scooby Doo, etc.) or you can feed it to the human guests at your pet's party.
This makes a nice BIG cake
Materials:
- something to set the cake on -- we made our own cake board by duct taping sheets of thick cardboard together (we used box lids for this) -- this was daddy's part of the process. We then covered with Aluminum foil (you could also cover with a waxy or shiny gift wrap.
- 9 x 13 or 8 x 11 (any rectangular shaped) baking pan. If you don't want such a huge cake, you can actually use a square pan... You'll just have a shorter bone.
- 4 round cake pans (or use 2 round cake pans and do your baking twice)
- 3 cake mixes (whatever flavour/recipe you prefer). You don't have to have all the same flavour if you don't want too. You can make a white rectangle cake and chocolate round cakes.
- 4 containers of chocolate icing (or you can make colored bones -- a blue one for Blue's Clues or a red one for Clifford with white icing and food color paste) You'll likely have icing left over, but I like to make sure I have enough.
- Optional: Fruit by the Foot (fruit roll up)
