No-Bake Candy Cake

long earlier I was aware of the blogging footing NO-BAKE CANDY CAKE

long earlier I was aware of the blogging footing NO-BAKE CANDY CAKE
I constitute this persuasion on a spider web site a few years agone (long earlier I was aware of the blogging world). It is a fun (and easy) projection which tin hold out tailored to whatever age, vacation or special occasion.

Need a gift for somebody at move or school? Make them a modest version. Make a huge version for a tabular array centerpiece at a teenager’s birthday party. The possibilities are endless.

The “candy cake” pictured was made amongst a 9” cardboard circle for a base. Since the candy y'all are going to attain total this amongst is heavy, the base of operations cardboard needs to hold out pretty rigid, so…if inwards doubt, double-up your cardboard. If y'all double upward your cardboard, roll it inwards foil to disguise it.

Next, I hot glued 2 (FLAT) 8” Styrofoam wreath circles (craft dept. at Walmart) on top of each other, then wrapped them with broad ribbon (to disguise them) and glued them to the cardboard circle base. Now y'all should accept a apartment base of operations amongst a ribbon wrapped “lip” only about the outer border of the base.

Next, attach mini-candy bars or mini-boxes of candy to the exterior of the “lip” past times placing a SINGLE SMALL DOT of hot gum on the dorsum of the candy wrapper (use my photograph equally a guide).

Now attain total the hollow expanse within of the Styrofoam wreath "lip" amongst loose, wrapped candies, attain total to the top.Next, mean value most decorating the apartment top of the Styrofoam “lip”. You tin either gum to a greater extent than candy to it, or force lollipops, blow pops, or whatever candy on a stick, into the Styrofoam hence it volition add together top (see my photo).

TIP: Plan ahead in addition to brand certain all of your candy bars are facing inwards the same direction. Keep your pattern or color subject inwards hear when y'all are choosing candy bars.

TIP: If y'all are using hot gum on chocolate bars, holler back only 1 petty point volition suffice in addition to if y'all are concerned most it, freeze them first.

TIP: Do non purpose whatever unwrapped candy.
TIP: If giving equally a gift, this looks peculiarly festive if y'all roll it inwards clear cellophane in addition to decorate it amongst lots of curly ribbons.

The hardest business office of this projection is non snacking on the candy spell y'all are constructing it!!!
