This Santa Clues cake was one of my earlier cakes when I first began decorating. I saw this cake in a magazine and decided to make my own Santa Claus for the holiday. This is actually a brownie cake baked in a silicone heart pan. When you decorate the face turn the heart upside down so that the point of the heart is at the top and the two humps are at the bottom.
I used a cream cheese icing on the cake. The features of his face are chocolate candies (M&Ms). His beard was made by using a Wilton 21 tip and making oversized shells. The red in his hat is colored sugar.
We love this Santa, we are going to make it with a large spring form pan and cut out our own heart. We (my daughter and I) are going to use red store bought frosting-hard to do dark red but we want his cap to be real red-we will let you know how it goes. I will try the Wilton tip.
hi does anyone have the instructions for the icing for this cake and if you do could I have a response as soon as possible thanks
instead if the Wilton tip, I will fluff up the icing for his and use a combo of white chocolate curls and coconut for his beard
I make these Santa’s from sugar cookies. The children love them.
