Turkey Cake

 

Here’s a cake to love this Thanksgiving!

An adorable turkey cake!

There’s no real recipe for this one.  I baked a cake in 3 6-inch layers (chocolate, because that’s how we roll around here) and frosted in chocolate frosting.

Then, I added 2 yellow candy melts as a beak.  I melted yellow and red candy melts and used a spoon to make feather shapes on a silicone mat lined baking sheet (parchment would also work), slowly mixing the colors as I went to get shades of orange.  Once hardened, I added the candy feathers to the cake.  Finally, I used extra chocolate frosting to make additional feathering.

This cake is sure to be the centerpiece at your thanksgiving dinner!
