Snowmen Christmas Cake

This year I decided to ice my Christmas Cake not in the traditional Red, White and Green colours usually associated with Christmas Cakes.

I started with a blue and lilac colour scheme, and wanted to incorporate Snowmen somewhere in the design so cut out some circles and arranged them around the side.  I gave them different colour hats and scarves and iced some white snow flakes around them. 

On the top edge of the cake I put some white royal icing in an icicle design.

I wrote Merry Christmas on the top with 'run out' icing, and added a few sprigs of Holly.  A few sparkly trees and snowballs were arranged on the board, a lilac ribbon completed the cake.
