HOPPY FROG CAKE



Hoppy Frog Cake image

KIDS will jump at the chance to sample the cute confection here! It's a real catch as a dessert for the frog-themed birthday party. To shape this web-footed fellow, our kitchen staff prepared a yummy round yellow cake for a body and then added whole cupcakes for eyes and a halved one for feet. The legs required no baking at all-they're Twinkies snack cakes! Tinted frosting, a licorice mouth and chocolate-candy pupils finished the colorful critter. Want to create your own? Just follow the recipe.
