Some treats I spotted recently at the store inspired me to create this Christmas Holiday Cake, featuring a sweet winter scene complete with trees, logs, and mushrooms. This would be the perfect project to do with children because it’s easy and fun to make.
I started by baking three chocolate cake layers and then filling and frosting them.
The fun part is the candy: Duplo Wafer Log Candies – Meiji Chocorooms – sugar cones, and snowy icy sprinkles.
I lightly frosted the cones by holding them with my fingers inside the cone and spreading the frosting on the cone with my other hand, followed by a dusting of green sugar sprinkles.
For a smaller tree, I broke off the bottom of a cone to make it smaller. Then, I frosted and sprinkled as I had done on the larger cone and then I placed the logs and trees all about the top of the cake.
and scattered a few chocorooms around the base.
And here comes the fun part: Snowy, icy sprinkles!

IT'S ME, SERENA!
In 2002, I was dreaming of creating a fun and happy little event to sell my vintage and handmade goods. In 2002, I held my first event in my neighbor's barn along with a handful of friends. The sale became wildly popular and began attracting visitors from across the country and recognition in national magazines. Today The Farm Chicks Vintage & Handmade Fair fills the Spokane County Fairgrounds and features hundreds of creatively and carefully curated spaces packed with vintage and handmade goods. Many describe it as a bucket list event, magical, inspirational, and the best event of its kind in the USA. I describe it as the best weekend of the year!
