Easy directions for making this number
one first birthday cake:
Bake a sheet cake the size that you need. With an icing filled bag and
tip #5 draw the number one with the angel blowing out the
one candle. Cut the cake away from the shape.
You will use tip #5 for all outline work unless otherwise specified,
and tip #16
for all fill in work. With black icing and tip #5 make the eye on the
angels face. With brown icing outline the eyebrow.
Next outline the face, hands, and feet with a medium flesh color.
Fill them in with a light flesh color. Next outline the angels gown and
wings in a
medium gray. Fill them in with a white icing.
Outline the hair in brown,and fill the hair in with yellow icing.
Outline the cake on the
cloud with pink icing and fill it in with pink and white icing. Next
outline the flame in orange and fill in with yellow.
Outline the cloud with Blue icing and fill in with white icing. Also do
the candle on the cake at this time. Now you are going to use tip #10
and pink icing and outline the #1 on the outside and inside of the one
so that there is a border around the one.
Fill in the border with the pink icing. Fill in the inside of the
one with a light pink icing. Using
a tip #10 and white icing make dots on the light pink area.
Fill in the sides of the cake with an ivory or a white icing.
Finally, using a
blue icing make the blow out lines from the angels mouth to the candle
flame.
