Today is a fun day around these parts. One of our favorite minions turns 2. This little guy is so much fun and I hope he knows how much his Aunties love him. Our friend, the Minion Mama, asked us to make a cake for Silas. So it was done.
For the most part this cake is simple and straightforward - a 2 layer blue velvet banana cake. Easy Peasy. Color that bad boy yellow, pipe a white circle, add some black hair and smile and some chocolate licorice for the mask. Done.
However, one thing I want to address as a public service is silver icing! Have you ever tried to find silver tint or silver coloring. I found every color under the sun including gold, no silver. Dang it. Let me share what I discovered - use a tiny bit of black. That's it. Done - you now have silver. How did I not figure that out sooner.
