Spring-Easter Cake

I am sure most of you have seen the Kit Kat cake. The one with Kit Kat candy bars all around it and the top filled with some other kind of yummy candy like M & M's or chocolate eggs right??? Well I have wanted to make one for awhile now and decided today was the day. There is a family in the neighborhood with the most adorable kids...well all the kids in my neighborhood are adorable but the Klingler kids as I call them just happen to love my chocolate cake. Today was their lucky day. When it was done I took it to them. Hope they enjoy it.

I love to use the colors Lime Green and Hot Pink for my Easter table so I thought I would use it for my cake as well. All I did was make my favorite chocolate cake, frost it, trim the Kit Kat's to size and tie a ribbon around it. It was soooooo easy!!

I decided to change the top decoration a few times to see which one I liked the best....here are the results!

Spring Flowers















































Peep Love Birds































Seeeee I told you they were love birds...
Look at the cute eggs they left behind!
































I am sure there are so many ways to decorate a cake like this but my skills in this area are limited to well.....me and my talents...LOL. This worked for me.

    That is such an adorable idea! I kind of stink at frosting cakes so I am grateful for any ideas to simplify the process.

    Thank you for submitting this to Hump Day Hoorah! A new Hoorah is now up and I'd love it if you joined in. Have a great week! :)

    Cricket, your Kit Kat cake is amazing !! (Although, I think I gained 10 lbs. just looking at it!) For your first attempt, you are definitely a pro !! I can't pick a favorite topping, although, the flowers are fabulous on top !! Thanks for sharing, *Becca*

    Super Cute! I made a similar one with pirouette cookies and little bird salt and pepper shakers and roses.

    I never heard of a KIt Kat cake but my kids will sure be glad I did thanks to you!
    Love hot pink and green combo...hard to pick my favorite topper...maybe the love birds?

    I have a feeling this may be sitting on my Easter table on Sunday now too!
