- 2 9-inch square yellow cakes - baked
- 16 oz. Black frosting You can make your own with chocolate frosting and black food coloring
- 2 Red Pull and Peel Licorice
- 3 oz. White Frosting
You'll want to start out by baking two square cakes and stacking them on your serving platter - It's up to you if you want to put frosting between each layer
If you can't find black frosting, mix some chocolate frosting with black gel food coloring
Use Pull and Peel Licorice to make a little (sideways) candy cane shape in the middle of the cake
Use a #67 Wilton Leaf Tip and a bag of white frosting to make 2 Ws in the middle of the cake. the leaf tip does all of the work - instant layers of W
*The bottom section of the larger W overlaps the licorice piece in the middle of the cake
*The smaller W goes inside of the larger W
Cut the straws so that they will be about 4 inches above the cake when inserted
Place silver paper straws into the 4 corners of the cake
Attach pieces of pull and peel licorice around the straws to look like rope
*I used 8 pieces and trimmed them to fit the length of my cake
Push the licorice ends around the straws until they stuck together in a nice tight loop
Store cake covered at room temperature for up to 1 day before your party
