Constructing An Igloo Cake:
Materials needed:
White icing, blue food coloring, small paint brush, one black licorice stick, one pipe
cleaner or fine wire, a scale-size evergreen tree and a Santa if you wish.
After cake is cooled, turn over onto a large round serving platter.
With a sharp paring knife carve a scale-sized "front door" into the cake. Ice the cake with
white/vanilla frosting, coating it smoothly. Let icing dry
Once the icing is dry, use a small paint brush and outline "blocks of ice" with blue food
coloring.
Thread the pipe cleaner (or other type wire) through the center of the licorice stick, then
shape it into a spiral and stick it into the top of the
Cake. This is the "smoke" rising from the center of the Igloo.
Add the tree and figure, and other scale-size creatures for decoration. Enjoy your Igloo
Cake!
