So I melted a handful of chocolate chips and stirred in a splash of half and half and stirred it to smooth. Then put it into a ziplock sandwich bag and cut off the tip... it worked really well!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-decorating-a-birthday-cake#post-371512 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 09:07:16 +0000 T-Mom 371512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could use some kind of cake topper to make it really quick. I put a little tinkerbell figurine on DD's cake and it was very cute and she loved it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/ideas-for-decorating-a-birthday-cake#post-371348 Thu, 01 Nov 2012 07:24:48 +0000 heffalump 371348@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH's birthday is coming up and I'm making him a cake. We're spending the day out so I'm not going to have a lot of time for this cake...... but I want to make it somewhat special. He's requested a yellow cake with strawberry icing. So yes, he's going to have a pink cake. I don't think he thought that through. Any ideas on how I can make the cake look good with a short amount of time? I have absolutely no cake decorating skills. </p>
