Why should you buy a used cake pan on eBay?

- On eBay you'll find almost every cake pan that has ever existed
- You know exactly what you're getting (and you know it'll work... ;-)
- You'll probably use it only once, so why even think about buying a new one?!

Horseshoe Cake

My daughter, like most girls her age, is horse crazy and wanted to have a horse themed birthday. We had a barn party where everyone got to ride horses, etc, and I made this horseshoe horse cake.

This horse cake is a single layer horseshoe baked in the Wilton cake decorating horseshoe pan. I didn't even level this horse cake, just turned it upside down and frosted!

I made two batches of thin icing - one all green for the base icing, the other I left white and colored green and blue as needed for the grass/water/writing. This horse cake is fairly simple - the most time consuming part was covering with grass. I was going for a dreamy-meadow-wishes-come-true kind of feeling cake with horses of course.

I iced the horse cake green all over and iced on blue icing for stream. I avoided completely mixing in the blue coloring for a more realistic water color, and also added touches of white icing, and blue and white cake sparkles on the stream. I then covered all the green with grass using Wilton tip 233 (my all time favorite tip!). I sprinkled the grass with green sugar (to give it depth) and green cake sparkles for - sparkle :-).

I topped the cake with toy foals and royal icing flowers (left over from a previous cake project of mine). I stuck a flower on one side of the black foal's mouth and piped a green stem on the other to look as if it was holding the flower. I wrote on the cake board and added royal icing butterfly. She loved her horse cake - it was well worth the time!
