Elmo Cake

Finding the right color to decorate an Elmo cake can be a little tricky. See how we make red icing.

This cake was made with a 13x9 pan and an Elmo pan. The 13x9 pan is decorated with a shell border and candy sprinkles. It is done using the star fill in method.
We also have ideas below on how to make Elmo cupcakes. They are fairly easy and can be a fun way to celebrate an Elmo birthday party.

Free Cake Decorating Ideas:

• Blow up or copy a picture on waxed paper of Elmo and transfer to your cake using the paint a cake method.


• Instead of filling Elmo in with stars you can fill it in with a spatula or paintbrush since the red takes a lot of space.


• Instead of using stars you can use Tip 233 for hair.


• Decorate a 2 layer cake however you'd like and use small Elmo toys for decorating. Alternately you can buy a cake decorating kit, see below for examples.

• Making Elmo cupcakes are fairly easy. Pipe red stars or red hair with tip 233 over top of your cupcake. With a large writing tip pipe large white eyes at the top of your cupcake. Finish with black circles in the middle of your eyes. As any easy alternative you can use large marshmallows cut in half for the eyes. With frosting add a chocolate chip to each marshmallow eye. Add an orange gumdrop for an Elmo nose. Add a chocolate cookie cut in half for a mouth. Or use fondant for mouth and eyes.Photo courtesy of dragonflycustomcakes
