I wanted to make a small cake for a second birthday party for a little girl who LOVES Elmo! The Elmo Birthday Cake Idea is a basic chocolate cake split in two with raspberry curd in between the two layers. I iced it with yellow-coloured buttercream icing (made with icing sugar, milk and margarine).
The Elmo is sculptured entirely from marshmallow fondant icing that I made the day before, coloured red and refrigerated to keep it firm. The pink dots around the base are also marshmallow fondant and the birthday girl loved eating them!
This was a really simple cake that looked effective once it was completed.
