I made this Cookie Monster cake for a second birthday party, it turned out really cute! I used the Wilton ball pan for his head, a smaller round cake for his neck and loaf pans for his arms (which I carved with a serrated knife to shape).
I used a LOT of royal blue and a little tiny bit of black, it took a LOT of blue to get it to the right color but keep adding, it’ll get there! I used fondant balls for the eyes and Wilton pre-made black for the mouth and eye dots.
I used the grass tip for the “fur”, pulling out, start in the back so you can get used to the tip and get the look you want, that way when you get to the front you have perfected your technique!
This cake was easy and fun, and it turned out really great!
I think you did a wonderful job on this cake. I have just started baking and i think this will be my next task to tackle.
awesome!
You scored with this cake! Wow fantastic job! I’m going to attempt it for my daughter’s first birthday this month :)
I had a question though. What is “Wilton black”? You said you used that for the blacks of his eyes and mouth?
Also, do you have a way that you can make a very small recipe of fondant icing? I’ve never made it before, but don’t want to whip up a massive batch just for the eyes…
Any help (before the 24th lol) would be greatly appreciated!
Again, yummy cake! :D
Wilton Blk is the frosting in the tube that is premixed in colors. SO much easier than mixing black icing. Just put a tip and a coupler on it and you’re good to go. I wanna know what you used for the perfectly rounded eyes.
This is a good likeness of cookie a trick I use for coloring black frosting start with chocolate frosting add your black color its wonderful and tastes good too….
I have a girlfriend who is crafty with cakes, I send this cake to her so she will be making it for my son’s first birthday:) I love it!
