Coolest Homemade Cake

I love making cakes shaped like other food items, like this giant hot dog cake.  I had this great opportunity to be featured on the Ontario Premier's Blog and make a video.  I came up with this cool homemade cake idea to share with everyone.

Everyone cake make this fun and fabulous cake that looks like a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich.  It doesn't require any fondant covering skills and its fast, easy and look fabulous!  It's great for birthdays, an anniversary or any type of event.  And for those who are allergic, it doesn't contain any peanuts!

Here's what you'll need:

• Two 8-inch square vanilla cakes
• Vanilla buttercream, Chocolate Buttercream, Chocolate buttercream (with some yellow food coloring) to look like peanut butter.
• Strawberry jam
• Make your own template of the "bread" out of parchment paper and cake board of the same shape
• Large and small palette knife
• Bread knife and smaller knife for carving
• Larger cake board or plate
• turntable (optional)

 Hope you enjoyed the video!  I had so much fun making it!
