Supplies:
Pound Cake
Frosting
Cookie cutter
Scissors
Piping bag
Rosemary Sprigs
White Ribbon
Gold Letting
Mini Kabob Sticks
Glue
Knife
Make the rosemary wreath by tying the ends of the sprig together with a ribbon. Run the scissor blade to curl the ends of the ribbon. Take gold lettings and glue the back to the mini kabob sticks. Set these cake toppers aside.
Cut the pound cake using the cookie cutter. You can make three mini cakes from a regular pound cake. Use a knife to cut the cake rounds in three equal parts to make the layers of the cake. Fill the piping bag with frosting. Snip off the tip of the piping bag and start piping a consistent swirl on top of each layer.
Stack the layers directly on top of each other. Add the rosemary wreath and gold letting to the top layer of each naked cake.
How easy was that? These mini naked celebration cakes will add more joy and excitement to your festivities! Your guests will be impressed. To you, this was simple “a piece of cake” to make.
