Use cornflour to roll out icing- less sticky than icing sugar. |

My method to get cheap character cake which is wheat-free( so I get some!) and the kids seems to like
1) trace an image ( mine is from the computer) then use a pointy stick to trace image impression on freshly iced cake( err bought icing of course...but I did roll it out!).
|
2)Colour in outlines with icing pen and food colouring |
|
3)Paint colours on with food colouring and paintbrush |
|
4)Remember to open food colouring bottles with a cloth or your hand will look like this! |
|
5) Put on matching theme table cloth to remind everyone what it is supposed to be! |

Where is the crochet I hear you ask?
|
Note to self, put pics in chronological order |
|
I think I like the colours |

I like the colours more ,the more I go on...not frogging anything though so I had better get used to them! First I wasn't sure about the denim blue, then the green, now the yellow..yet somehow together I like them!
Cake and crochet - could it get any better?! Love your crochet colours and the cake looks fab. Hope your little one was pleased.
