Happy Faces Cake

 

Ingredients

• 1 x 20cm (8inch) Filled Victoria Sandwich Cake
  Dr. Oetker 25cm (10 inch) round silver cake board
  250g (9oz) Dr. Oetker Ready roll icing
  Dr. Oetker Easy Ice
  Dr. Oetker Coloured Ready roll Icing
  Dr. Oetker Milk Chocolate Beans
  Dr. Oetker Birthday Candles
  Dr. Oetker Jelly Diamonds
  Dr. Oetker Writing Icing
  100g (4oz) icing sugar
  Dr. Oetker Pink Food Colouring
  1ml (¼ tsp) cocoa powder
  2-3 tsp warm water
  10 uniced cup cakes

Method

1. Place the cake on the board and spread thinly all over with Easy Ice. Roll out  the ready roll icing on a surface lightly dusted with icing sugar to cover the cake completely. Smooth down over the cake and trim as necessary.
2. Roll out the coloured ready roll icing thinly and stamp out letters to spell "HAPPY BIRTHDAY". Secure on top of the cake using a little water. Push milk chocolate beans round the edge of the cake. Secure the jelly diamonds round the middle of the cake using a little writing icing.  Push the candles into their holders and then arrange in the top of the cake. Set aside.
3. Sieve the icing sugar equally into 2 small bowls. Add a drop of pink colouring to one and sieve the cocoa into the other. Mix each together with sufficient water to form a smooth spreadable icing. Spoon the pink icing on to half the cakes and spread to form a neat circle. Do the same with the chocolate icing over the remaining cakes. Let the icing set for at least 30 minutes before decorating with writing icing.
