This Curious George Cake was made for my son’s third birthday. The base layer is a 9×13 chocolate cake with vanilla icing tinted yellow. I used the Wilton tints and they work great.
For the monkey face, I used an 8″ round and cut a cupcake in half for the ears and used another part of a cupcake for his hair. I tinted a small amount of vanilla icing Wilton brown – just a bit to make the tan color. The dark brown was just chocolate icing piped with a #6 star tip.
I outlined the face using black gel. I did the eyes with black and white gel. I also put yellow “Runtz” as they were bananas – and with a monkey cake – you’ve got to have bananas right?
The top layer (8″) was a butter cake. So it was like a marble cake and tasted really yummy and my son loved it.
