Reindeer Layered Cake
Ello, folks! This week I have two recipes postings that are geared toward the holiday season and I just can’t wait to share both of them with you. Today I wanted to share this super cute Reindeer layered Cake.
Ever since I was a child I have loved Reindeer and I thought what better than to make a super cute Reindeer cake! This cake is easy to create and you can get the entire family involved in decorating it.
I think this would make a great centerpiece on your table this holiday not to mention that it is so tasty!
Instead of doing just a recipe insert I wanted to write things up so that you can really follow the directions correctly. Let’s start.
