Ingredients

  • 1 Box Cake Mix & ingredients on box
  • White Frosting
  • Black Icing
  • Rainbow Marshmallows
  • Yellow Sprinkles

Instructions

  • Bake the cake in a round baking dish according to the directions on the box.
  • Once the cake has baked & has cooked, remove from the pan.
  • Using a sharp knife, carefully cut out a wedge from one side of the cake round. Take this wedge and cut it into two pieces: one piece will be shaped into the unicorn's ear, and the other piece into its horn.
  • Arrange these pieces creatively to bring the unicorn shape to life on a serving platter or cake board.
  • Frost completely with white frosting.
  • Cover the horn in yellow sprinkles.
  • Using the marshmallows, create the unicorn's mane.
  • Use the black frosting to draw on a mouth and eyes.
