Easy Frozen themed cakes that anyone can make

Our Pinterest feeds are over-run with incredible Frozen themed cakes. But where are all the recipe ideas for normal people? We’re not all artisan cake decorators with professional fondant sculpting and painting experience! If you’re thinking of creating your own Frozen cake for your child’s birthday, here are some ingenious cake decorating ideas that are within reach of any home cook.

 

Top the Cake with Figurines

They’re an inexpensive and delightful way of representing characters without having to go to the trouble of fiddling with fondant and icing.

Transform a Barbie doll into Elsa

Youtube superstar Rosanna Pansino has a wonderful Frozen princess cake recipe on her show Nerdy Nummies. She uses the official Elsa and Anna dolls but it’s easy to turn a regular Barbie into either with a bit of icing and coloured ribbon.

Use Hard Candy to Make Ice Shards

There are several different methods for making realistic ice but this our favourite. It uses corn syrup, sugar, food colouring and flavoured extract and can be prepared in 45 mins.
