Panda Cake Recipe step 2

2. Use the 8-inch cake for the panda's head. Trim the edge of the larger cake to create a scooped neckline and fit it snugly against the head, as shown.

3. Cut 2 cupcakes in half; use 2 halves for ears and 2 for front paws. Use the remaining 2 cupcakes for rear paws.

4. Spread on the frosting, creating light and dark patches of fur. Cut the mint patty in half and place one half in the middle of each ear. Add Mini Kisses for claws, a Junior Mint nose, a fruit leather tongue, a shoestring licorice mouth, and 2 sour rings and Skittles eyes. Top the paws with white sprinkles for added fur.
