Another shot of the frog cake!

Max wanted a frog cake, so here it is! It was quite yummy too... the icing was a Swiss meringue buttercream , and was not the right icing for the technique I was attempting. I did not want to use fondant to cover the cake and tried a technique using paper towels to smooth partially dried buttercream icing. The icing I made does not dry out, which would be great in any other cercumstance! Anyway, it ended up working well, just not as expected. All in all a success though, I think.

I used store bought vanilla cupcake mix and chocolate icing, there was not enough time for anything else and it was very yummy! I rolled the iced cupcakes in crushed Oreo's, and placed the little fondant frog on top- they were quite cute I must say!

There were 24 in all...

Lil fondant frogs FINALLY! I got a chance to play around again for Max's birthday.
