Servings: 12 Mini cakes
Calories: 32kcal
Ingredients
- Cream cheese pound cake
- Chocolate buttercream frosting
- 2 cups Marshmallow fondant Dark green or black
- ½ cup Shredded coconut Sweetened
- ¼ cup Candy corn Roughly chopped
Instructions
- Allow it to cool completely. It's better to chill in fridge overnight to really make it firm.
- Cut it in half lengthwise.
- Use a small 2 inch circle cutter to out circle cake pieces.
- Ice the sides of these mini cakes with chocolate buttercream, using a spatula.
- Roll out green fondant (or black fondant) and cut strips using a pizza cutter. The width of these strips should be the same as the height of the mini cakes.
- Wrap these fondant strips around your circular cakes and cut off excess along the sides.
- Tip:I have seen some sushi cakes that use green fruit roll up strips instead of fondant. I think that’s very smart. It would save you the hassle of rolling fondant and cutting strips.
- Cover the top of your cakes with icing.
- Sprinkle shredded coconut on top.
- Sprinkle crushed candy canes in the center.
Notes
- Read all my tips above.
- Leftovers can be stored in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
