Baby Shoes Cake


I made this cake for a friend's baby shower..I was searching for the baby shower cake designs when I came across this one on a website and found it very different and interesting. As my friend had not found out if its a boy or girl, I just decided to make the cake with blue as well as pink color.


BASIC CAKE:
Follow the recipe for vanilla cake in the blog. You will need one 9 inch x 2 inch square cake and 3 cupcakes for this cake.

FROSTING:
Whipped cream frosting

DECORATING THE CAKE:
The baby shoes are made from 3 cupcakes, 1 1/2 cupcake for each shoe. First take one cup cake and divide it into half vertically and keep aside. You will need this for the front part of the shoe. Now take another cupcake and cut off the dome over it. After doing this carve a small round not very deep inside the cupcake. Then place this on the cake and frost it all over. Then take the 1/2 cupcake and stick it using the frosting as the glue to the front side of the cupcake. Frost this half cupcake too. Then after you have frosted the shoe completely just pipe out the design on the sides only of the shoe with the color you want. Then place the googly eyes and pipe out a small ribbon in the center of the shoe. Repeat it for the other shoe too!!
