When I found out that today is
Hot Dog Day, I knew I had to share this fun creation. It really takes "semi-homemade" and pushes it to the next level, everything can be bought, but the end result is completely unique. The Hot Dog and Fries Cake is a completely edible, ridiculously sweet cake shaped to look like a hot dog in a bun and french fries.

One of my good friend's is absolutely crazy for marzipan. In fact, he believes that a cake is not worth eating unless it's completely smothered in the stuff. So when I found out that today is National Marzipan Day, I immediately thought of him.

Frosting: A sweet glaze often made with sugar, butter, water and egg whites or milk, often flavored and cooked (although it can be uncooked). It's used to cover or decorate baked goods, such as cakes or cookies and can range from thick to thin.
