Homemade Pig Cake

I made my pig cake by making a basic circular cake. I also used the same mixture I used for the large cake to create two smaller circular cakes. I did this by putting a small amount of the mixture into two small souffle dishes.

After the cakes were baked I let them cool before getting one small cake and cutting it in half. With these two small halves I cut out two equal ear shapes. The other small one I left whole to use as the nose. I placed these shapes as shown in my picture.

I made pink butter icing to cover the whole cake. (creamed butter and icing sugar plus 1 drop of red food colouring). i used ready made white marzipan icing to mold two white eyes, two white inner ear shapes and then 4 black shapes to create the pupils and nostrils (add a little black food colouring to make the marzipan black).

I then placed the eyes and nostrils on the cake where appropriate. You may add a mouth although I did not. This is a great cake for any occasion.
