You've heard the saying that was my inspiration for this pair of cakes.....
March comes in like a Lion....and goes out like a Lamb.
The Friendly Lion pan from Wilton created the shape and a #16 star tip did the body (stars), mane and tail (pull out stars). It's hard to see (should have tinted frosting a little darker) but he's got a goatee and a little tuft of hair between the ears. I wanted to use the Wilton Chocolate frosting but only had the brownie frosting on hand so I blended it with a basic buttercream and the results were very tasty over the vanilla cake.
I made the rectangular cake out of chocolate with plain white buttercream frosting. As first I was going to make a meadow of green for the lambs but it didn't seem right to cover it all in green once I started. One lamb looked lonely so I made 3 since I've got three little lambs of my own.
