Cake Pans 101

I love Christmas trees. Don't you? How about a Christmas tree cake?

To make your Christmas tree cake, first start with a tree shaped pan to bake your cake. After the cake has cooled, use green icing to cover the specially shaped cake. Now for the fun part. You get to decorate your special Christmas tree cake. Some of my favorite suggestions are m&m's or peppermint candy that has been broken into tiny pieces, but I'm sure that you can come up with some suggestions of your own. How about powdered sugar for a snow covered tree? The possibilities are endless. Children and adults alike will have lots of fun decorating the tree!
