You don’t have to spend a lot of money to get some really great quality decorating tools and colors. One thing that I didn’t know when I started was that you can’t use regular food coloring to color the icing on the cake, you need to use specific icing colors for the colors to really pop!

Bake your cake

First, beat the butter in your oven safe bowl! Then line your muffin trays with cupcake liners. Then, fill your muffin tray in the same way and bake. My cupcake was made in about 15 minutes and the cake in the bowl took about 25 minutes. I started checking the cake in the bowl after about 15 minutes, poked it with a toothpick. If it comes out clean, your cake is baked. ???? Remember to check your cupcakes earlier, they can be finished sooner.After cupcakes and cupcakes are baked, let them cool. Once the cake is at room temperature, you can remove the cake from the bowl and turn it upside down. This is your turtle body! Next, remove two cupcakes from your tray. Cut the top of the cupcake and then cut the top in half. Here are your turtle’s legs and arms! Take another cupcake and remove the top of the cupcake. This is your turtle’s head. Put all your pieces together. They can rest assuredly right next to your turtle carcass.

To get a slightly darker green food color for the shapes on the shell, I added a bit of black to it once I finished with a light green. You will use light green for the face, legs, shell of the turtle cake. (now just leave the circular parts you want to darken) You only need a little bit of black, if this is your first time using these colors start with a little on the toothpick and add more than when you do. There should be enough of this darker green for the spots on your turtle’s shell. I leave this part for last.Once the icing is ready, you’ll need a starter tip to ice this cake. I used Wilton’s tip number 17. What you’re going to do is star this whole cake. Yes, every inch of this cake. You just need to squeeze the ice pack and apply it all around, remembering to leave spots on the top of the turtle’s shell for a dark green color. I saved this for last time. Once all the green in the other places was done, I added my dark green to the bag and filled in the splashes of color on the turtle shell.Add your googly eyes and you’re done!!! I can’t wait to see all of your turtle cakes, if you have a turtle birthday coming up this is a fun idea for that too! This quick and easy cake is a treat and will be a hit at any party. Don’t forget that you can turn it into any animal shape you want, just use your imagination and you’ll be on the right track. Read more: NCR . Formula
