Simple instructions for making 40th
Birthday Cakes:
Bake a sheet cake the size that you need. With an icing filled bag and
tip# 5 draw the big forty on the cake first. Next draw all the
words---Oh No...the, and Four.OH!
Now you need to draw the circular lines that make up the
background. Use a round tip #10
and sky blue icing and outline the big 40.
Use a star tip #18 and fill in the 40 with white icing. Use the round
tip #10 and red icing and outline the Big. Fill it in with white icing
using star tip #18. Using round tip #10 and yellow icing draw the Oh
No... With green
icing and the same size round tip draw -the.
Change to a round tip #5 and yellow icing and draw right on top
of the green -the.
Now make a lavender icing and use the round tip #10 and draw the
Four.OH! Make a royal blue icing and a dark purple icing. Using
the royal blue icing and round tip #5 draw the background circular
lines.
Use the star tip #18 to do the fill in work on the rest of the cake.
Now starting at the center of the big 4 start to fill in the royal blue
circular line. When you have done this,fill in with the dark purple
icing
the circular area which is right next to the royal blue circular line.
For the sides of the cake just follow the circular pattern from the top
to the bottom of the sides.The message is written on the board with sky
blue icing and round tip #5.
