Thanks to DeAnna for sharing this

Hi! I just wanted to say ‘thanks’ for the great Blue’s Clues cake template
on your site. I couldn’t find a Blue’s Clues cake mould in time for my
son Kyle’s 3rd birthday, so I searched for cake ideas online, and found
your site! The cake was relatively easy to make…I used a Funfetti cake
mix, and made the buttercream icing from scratch. I used the smaller
template, so I also made the paw-print cake to go along with it. I
looked at all the other fan art pictures on your site, and decided to
use a star tip to decorate the top. I used the marshmallow and chocolate
chip idea for the eyes…they turned out nice! I also tried the ‘dipping
the knife in warm water’ tip to keep crumbs to a minimum on my spreading
knife (great tip I will use from now on!). I used Wilton coloring paste
in ‘Sky Blue’ for the blue part and ‘Red Red’ for the tongue. The color
turned out nicely. I used generic brand blue sprinkles (raspberry
flavored!) for the spots. For the nose, I piped stars around the edges
to sort of outline the nose, and then added the sprinkles to the inside.
(My piping skills were poor…I did this at 1:00 a.m.!) Anyway, the
expression on my son’s face when he saw the cake the next morning was
priceless! I’m very appreciative of your site and for all the fan’s
photos as well.
