DOG CAKES RECIPE:
|
|
Comet says he'd like to have his cake and eat the kitty too - what a bad dog!
Getting back to dog cake spreads, what can you use that is healthy and tasty?
Sugary icings and food coloring are not good for dogs, but there are plenty of alternatives.
Why not add wholesome, natural foods that will provide the colors? Learn how creative you can be!
Tip: If you have a picture to copy from it makes it easier to decide on the design to use.
Use a spread as the background part of your design.
For ideas for ingredients to use to fill in the details of your design, see dog cake toppers.
SPREADS
Spreads can include:
- Apple butter (without added sugar)
- Cream cheese
- Liver paté
- Mashed bananas
- Peanut or other nut butter
- Plain yogurt
- Pureed squash
- Yogurt cheese
- Whipped egg whites
For example, cream cheese mixed with pureed beets or dark berries (or their juice) will give you shades of the pink and purple colors in the photo. Or combine yogurt with pureed peas or green beans to get shades of green.
You can also get a marbled effect by not fully mixing the colors.
Another idea is to choose more than one base color for your dog cake.
Do consider the effect on dog (and possibly human) tastebuds of the mix of toppings you plan to use! And always check with guests ahead of time about allergies their dog may have to ingredients.
