Tea Pot Party Cake Recipe
2 Cake mixes of your choice - chocolate, vanilla, lemon etc.
2 bundt cake pans
one small cake pan - 4"round - optional
marzipan or fondant - to make your handle, spout, and lid tip
Ribbon
Wax Paper
Icing and Decorations.
Here is all you need to do! Follow the instructions for your cake mixes using the bundt pans. Bake the cakes and let them cool. If you can spare the mix and have a mini pan, make one little cake for your lid
While the cake is cooling, fashion a tea pot handle, spout and tea pot lid tip out of the marzipan or fondant. You can attach these to your final cake with toothpicks or wooden skewers, broken.
Have fun with this, it may take a couple of tries to get them just right! Be creative.
Building your Tea Pot Party Cake
You will make the pot by placing the two bundt cakes flat sides together to make the main part of your tea pot. Fill the middle layer if you wish. Now insert your handle and your spout using toothpicks to attach, or 3" of a wooden skewer.
You are ready to ice and decorate. For the tea pot lid, use the mini cake or you can also use one of your favorite tea pot lids for the top of your cake!
