CONSTRUCTING AN IGLOO CAKE
Materials needed:

white icing, blue food coloring, small paint brush, one black licorice stick, one pipe cleaner or fine wire, a scale-size evergreen tree and a Santa if you wish.

After cake is cooled, turn out of the mixing bowl pan onto a large round serving platter.

With a sharp paring knife carve a scale-sized "front door" into the cake.

Ice the cake with white/vanilla frosting, coating it smoothly.

After the icing is dry, use a small paint brush and outline with blue food coloring "blocks of ice" all over the cake, like an igloo.

Thread the pipe cleaner (or other type wire) through the center of the licorice stick, then shape it into a spiral and stick it into the top of the cake. This is the "smoke" rising from the center of the Igloo.

Add the tree and figure, and other scale-size creatures for decoration.
