Question: What is in this photo?

Answer: A Roasted Turkey, of course and it looks yummy! I think it is Butterball Turkey Roll because there are no wings.

Question: You really think so? It was made by Victoria Cargill. Okay, what is in the next photo?

 

Answer: It IS a turkey and it looks like it has been roasted to perfection! I like the cute paper on the feet and it looks like bread stuffing, too. Victoria Cargill is a great cook!

And here is how it is done!

This cake was made with the a double oval pan.
The drum sticks were cut out of a sheet pan cake.
I then frosted it with butter cream frosting and air brushed it.
I attached the legs with lollie pop sticks to keep them in place.
I used large white cupcake liners, cut the centers out and wrapped one around each of the turkey legs.
The stuffing is made of cut up cubes of leftover cake from the sheet cake.
After I was finished with the cake and the mess was all cleaned up,
I realized I forgot to add front wings to the cake.
So if you make this cake, be sure to add wings!
