Cairn Cake

[josie&holly]

Had an appeal on the UK Forum for a recipe for a Cairn Cake, Has anyone made one that is either shaped like a cairn, decorated with cairn at all?

If so can they let me have details please?

I'd like to see a pic of it. Sounds cute.

Well, we have details for the cupcake but the person who wants it wants a large cake for a special surprise event!

LOL THAT IS AWESOME!

How do make it?!!?

I know nothing beyond the link to the older post, but how about doing a ring of the little cairn heads around the edge of the cake? Or a smaller circle of them in the middle?

Try looking for 'westie' cakes or decorations, they're the more popular breed and a color adjustment shouldn't be too hard.

Would an actual photo be appropriate?

I, of course, add a pinch of Cairn hair to everything I cook. It happens.

Try going to the Wilton.com site and do a search for dog. It doesn't show a Cairn but there are several ideas (including instructions as to which pans were used) that could be adapted to a Cairn with a little imagination.

Here is a picture of what I think is a West Highland White Terrier. But if get creative enough could add color points, color to whole body. It looks as if a 1/2 cylindar is used for body. Sculpted cake for sure. But I just thought I would share.

Wow, that's a real work of art! Yes, you could just change the coloring and it could be a Cairn. Not that I would ever put that much work into a cake. It would take longer to make it than to eat it!
