Pablo Cake

A friend of mine, her son was turning 2 and he LOVES Pablo. He has everything you could think of for Pablo and when he was asked what he wanted for his birthday cake he said Pablo.

I made the face for him from a photo I printed off the Internet. I didn't use any special pans because the little boy only wanted his head and hat. I used a circle pan for the head and 2 smaller disposable pans for the hat and cut everything else I needed from the left over cake. I started with putting the icing around the cakes as 'glue' and then making it all even with a white layer of icing. I then added on the edging with the star tip from Wilton. I outlined and filled in for what ever colour I needed. I did find that because of the season that my icing did warm a bit.

Next time I make it I will be putting my icing in the fridge until I'm ready to use it. Also I will buy the tip from Wilton that has 3 stars on it instead of the 1 star tip I had.
