Instructions
- Trim the ends of a store-bought jelly-roll cake to make a corn-cob shape. Cover with a thin layer of vanilla frosting, then cover the cake completely with candy corn, inserting the tips into the cake so that only the yellow ends are visible. Roll out a package of green fondant (we used Wilton Primary Colors Multi Pack, available at baking and crafts stores) until about 1/8 inch thick. Cut out 2 leaf-shaped pieces and arrange around the cake to look like husks.
Reviews
This is an excellent idea, however, I feel it would be more appropriate on Instructables.com than Food Network, as it’s not really a recipe rather a decoration idea.
I took it a step further and made a pumpkin roll cake, from the back of the label of Libby’s canned pumpkin. I used sour cream/cream cheese frosting to add a little tanginess to offset all the sweet. The girlfriends family, including her 7 younger siblings loved it for thanksgiving last year, and I am bringing the same thing this year!
I made this for a Labor Day picnic, very cute & very easy to make. Love the idea!!
