The baby shower cake:
Storks have been symbolic of a new baby since the Victorian times. (And if you're still wondering, babies are
not delivered by storks!)
Decorating the cake:
We found a cute plastic stork online at FancyFlours.com for only $3.00. Otherwise, do your own investigating
online or check out your local party supply store for other stork cake toppers.
Make a 9 x 13-inch cake. Freeze cake for at least 2 hours before frosting.
Make a double batch of our basic white frosting. Reserve 1/2 cup and 1/4 cup of frosting separately. To the 1/2 cup, add food coloring to make light blue frosting. To the 1/4 cup, add
yellow.
Frost partially frozen cake with white frosting, reserving about 1/4 cup for frosting clouds. Proceed with
piping light blue edge along bottom of cake. Above the blue edge, pipe a thin yellow border.
With remaining 1/4 cup frosting, create frosting 'clouds' on the cake's surface. Add a drop of blue food coloring to create a pale blue-colored cloud. Finally, top your cake with pastel cake sprinkles and stork.
Variations:
Make a delicious 'Stork's Nest' dessert out of almond bark and chow mein noodles. Melt almond bark and mix with chow mein noodles. Form in the shape of a nest and cool to harden. Fill the 'nests' with little candy eggs.
