Add some color and fun to your Thanksgiving dessert table this year by serving a festive Cream Filled Chocolate Cake Roll Turkey decorated with sugar-coated marshmallows, chocolate sprinkles, and more.
My friend, Meaghan, from The Decorated Cookie, creates amazing marshmallow treats, and last Thanksgiving she designed the cutest turkey cake made using a bundt cake and a colorful plumage of marshmallow feathers. I loved it.
This year, I was inspired by her creativity, to turn a chocolate cake roll into a turkey for Thanksgiving dinner.
I used brightly colored marshmallow pops for the feathers, covered the entire body of the turkey (the cake roll) in chocolate sprinkles, and added a chocolate head, wings, and feet. The facial features are all created out of marshmallows too.
If you’ve never made a cake roll before, and worry about the cake cracking, this is a good one to try out first, as the frosting and sprinkles cover up any tiny or large imperfections.
