Dora Backpack And Map Birthday Cake
For my niece's 4th Birthday I made her a cake that resembled Backpack and Map from the show "Dora the Explorer."
I baked a chocolate cake in a regular cake pan and when it cooled I flipped it upside down and removed it from the pan. After it was out of the pan I used a bread knife to cut the rectangular cake into a basic backpack type shape.
The icing and decorations (except for the Dora figure on the star) are made of fondant and food coloring. The fondant is easy to shape and is like working with play dough. It was a very fun cake to make.
