Every year we have a street party and every year we get a bit competitive. We've had scarecrow competitions, challenges to design our own Coat of Arms and this year its a bake off. With a Pampered Chef spatula as a prize its piping bags at dawn.
I've had my eye on this Kitkat and M&M cake that keeps cropping up on Pinterest for a while and this seemed the perfect opportunity to bring it out. I needed special cake to catch the eye of our judge, the local baker.
I adapted it slightly and used smarties (purely because I love smarties), it took 17 kitkats and 4 tubes of smarties.
So this is my cake....
| I had all these sweets in my house for a week! I've got willpower! |
If you were a judge which would you pick?
The result? Of course the Death Star won, it was in a league of its own. Anyway, I was on the winning quiz team and my daughter was runner up for this funny hat, so I'm not complaining!

I have seen that kit Kat cake on google and pinterest too and I will be pinning yours for sure!
ReplyDeleteThe death star is very clever (how to make a round ball shaped cake?) as is the angry birds one BUT yours is so pretty and I would be happy to receive it x x
Thanks for linking up
I have no clue how to make a round cake, maybe clever carving? When it came to eating the cakes after the competition mine was the one everyone wanted to eat, so I'll be proud of it for that
DeleteMmm that looks like my kind of street party! The cake looks amazing, bet it tasted it too!
ReplyDeleteIt was our best street party ever and this year it didn't rain!
DeleteYour cake is fantastic, I prefer it to the original which I have pinned! Thanks for the tips as to how many kit kats and smarties were needed. My hubby has a birthday coming up, so I may give it a go!
ReplyDeleteThanks, that is quiet a compliment!
DeleteFab cake Kath, I'm seriously impressed. So sorry we didn't make it the end, bloomin children and their germs. The death star was also pretty superb.
ReplyDeleteThanks and don't worry there's always next year!!
Deleteaww sorry you missed out on the spatula! your cake looks fab...so neat!
ReplyDeleteIts OK, I've got one of those Kenwood Chef spatulas, which are the best in the world!
DeleteWOAH! Your cake looks fan-ruddy-tabulous! What a lot of scrummy looking cakes all in one place - I would say they look too good to eat but NO CAKE looks too good to eat! NOM!
ReplyDeleteMaking a cake that was too good to eat would be completely pointless!!!
