Easter Egg Surprise Inside Cake!

To decorate the cake I just sectioned off four areas and decorated them each with royal icing or fondant. You can also use buttercream if you don’t want to mess with royal icing.

  1. I love your blog so insanely much. and i also love cold hard cash.
    I’ve always wondered though. Why won’t bloglovin’ let me follow you? :S

  2. I was impressed with the heart cake. The chick cake made me just about die. You are too creative!

  3. My first time on your blog…looking for a “last minute” Easter cake idea! What a surprise to see your beautiful chick cake! We raise chickens, so it is a cake I will definitely keep in mind for a later date! Blessings as you celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord Jesus!

  4. ok i was so commenting on this BEFORE the cold hard cash incentive…in fact, if i am randomly selected i will have you keep the money and share cakes, cookies, you name it favorite treat with you someday instead. i have gotten more than my money’s worth through our friendship and would rather pay it forward…knowing our paths will cross in person one of these days. this cake is just amazing! i’m telling you, you are going to be famous in so many more ways than you already are (i know you already are brilliant in the most important areas…like your children’s mom, husband’s wife, friend to so many, child of GOD)…adorable cake…
