Elmo Cake

To make this Elmo birthday cake, I made an ordinary vanilla cake in an Elmo shaped mold. I then cover the base of the cake in white butter icing, then used a #33 or star tube for the flat red stars which make up his body.

I used the same star tube using orange icing for his nose and hat, pink icing also for his hat and the bow on the gift and chocolate for the ice-cream.

Then I used a #5 tube with black icing which I used to out line the gift, his toes,color in his mouth and his body. To top it off, I put a red cherry on top his ice-cream.

This cake was done by me for my grand daughter's 1st birthday.
