Leprechaun Hat Shamrock Surprise Cake

Blow away your family and friends by making this Leprechaun Hat Shamrock Surprise Cake for St. Patrick's Day! It is moist, delicious, and comes with a special surprise inside.

Being an edible craft blogger who spends her days not only creating fun food, but searching the internet for other edible art, I tend to forget that not everyone has been served a cake with a surprise hiding inside. A friend was over when I was taking pictures of this cake, and when I cut into it to reveal the treasure hidden inside she was blown away.

Blow away your family and friends by making this Leprechaun Hat Shamrock Surprise Cake for St. Patrick's Day! It is moist, delicious, and comes with a special surprise inside.

When I explained to her how I hid green shamrocks inside this leprechaun hat cake, I had to show her the step-by-step photos, as she couldn’t believe it was as easy as I explained.

Stuffing shaped cakes inside larger cakes is really a simple way to make an impressive dessert and the person who originated the idea is a genius. I’ve sure had fun replicating the idea for holidays and I particularly love this Leprechaun Hat Shamrock Surprise Cake which I made for Tablespoon.com.

For the tutorial to make this St. Patrick’s Day surprise cake head on over to Tablespoon.com.
