Easy instructions for making this Cat in the Hat cake:
Bake a sheet cake in whatever size you will need for how many people
you will have at your birthday party.
With an icing filled bag and a
round tip, size #5, draw the cat in the hat on the top of the cake
keeping in mind that you will use the pieces that you will cut away
from
your shape to add to the shape to make it longer.
Once you have the shape drawn, cut away the cake from it.
Make black
icing and using round tip, size #5, outline the entire cat.
You will
use a star tip, size #18 to do all of the fill in work.
Make red icing
and fill in the red sections of his hat and his bow.
With your white
icing fill in the rest of the cat and the sides of the birthday cake.
