Number cake

January 26th, 2012
    Ingredients
  • 2 quantities butter cake (see related recipe)
  • 1 1/2 quantities butter cream icing (see related recipe)
  • Nestle Smarties, to decorate

Method
Place the cakes on a clean work surface. Use a large serrated knife to trim 1 short side of each cake. Place cut sides together. Place the template (see notes) on top of the 2 cakes. Use a small sharp knife to cut out the number. Place a little icing on the bases of the cakes to secure to a cake board or serving platter.
Spread the icing over the sides and top of the cake to cover.
Separate the Smarties into four different colours and place in separate bowls. Use brown Smarties to create three rows around the sides of the cake. Use the three remaining colours to outline the number on top of the cake, overlapping slightly.
