The horse has been painted on the cake by using a coloring image or pattern. The rest of the cake can be decorated as you'd like. The cake itself was a round cake that had a piece cut out of the top to resemble a horseshoe.

Free Cake Decorating Ideas:

An easy cake decorating idea is to use a cake image. Just apply on a frosted 2 layer cake and add a border if you choose.

See below for a video tutorial on making a horse cake.

Add a fence railing to your cake with tip #48. This is the same tip that does basketweave so you can have a rigged look or use the opposite side for a smooth line.

Use small horse toys and add a plastic fence on the top of your cake. Add tip #233 grass along the edges. You can also buy a cake decorating kit like this one.

Check out our farm barn cake decorated with toy horses.

Using a coloring page or cake pattern cut out the outline of a horse with rolled out fondant. Lay on a frosted cake and add details. For this horse cake we added the mane with a star tip. The eye is outlined with a black writing tip, filled in with white frosting and a black dot in the middle. The rest of the cake can be decorated as you choose with flowers, stars or dots.

Print off a horse cake decorating pattern and use it to create a cake image.
