With an icing filled bag and
round tip, size #5, draw the shape of the shamrock and banner on the
top of the cake.
Cut the cake away from your shape.
You will be using
the star tip, size #18 to do all of the fill in work and the round tip,
size #7 to do all of the outline work.
Using a dark green icing ,
outline the shamrock.
Outline
the banner with white icing. Use a bright yellow icing to write
"Lucky" and the round tip, size #7.
Now sprinkle some yellow edible glitter over the word "Lucky." Now,
using white icing and the star tip, fill in the banner.
I then sprinkled along the inside outline of the banner edible gold
powder.
Finally fill in the shamrock with a kelly green icing.
Now you have a shamrock cake that can be used for St. Patrick's day or
to celebrate the luck of the Irish!
