Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp. Rainbow sprinkles
- 1 pkt Yellow cake mix, (18.25 ounces)
- 2 c. Heavy cream, (1 pint)
- 1/4 c. Confectioners' sugar
- 1 pkt Flaked coconut (7 ounces, about 21/2 c.)
- 1/4 c. Granulated sugar
- 12 lrg Sugar-coated gumdrops, *
Directions
- Make the cake batter according to the package directions. Stir the sprinkles into the cake batter and bake according to the package directions for two 8 inch round cake pans. Let cold slightly, then remove from the pans and allow to cold completely on wire racks. In a large bowl, with an electric beater on medium speed, beat the cream and confectioners' sugar till stiff peaks form. Place 1 cake layer on a serving plate and frost the top with whipped cream. Place the second layer on the first and frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining whipped cream. Sprinkle the coconut over the entire cake. Sprinkle a cutting board with the granulated sugar. With a rolling pin, roll the gumdrops out over the sugar till they form circles about 3 inches in diameter, pressing the flattened gumdrops into the sugar as they get sticky. Set the green gumdrops aside. Healthy pinch each remaining gumdrop in the center, gathering it up to create a "flower". Place the pinched sides down in a bouquet in the center of the cake. Cut the green gumdrops into leaf shapes and place around the flowers. Cover loosley and refrigeratefor at least 2 hrs before serving.
- Note: Use 3 green gumdrops for "leaves" and 9 assorted colors for
- "flowers". Make sure to use large gumdrops or possibly use more small ones to create a bouquet of miniature flowers.
