How to make a Skylanders Inspired Portal Cake

What You’ll Need:

Cake Mix

Marshmallow Creme

Chocolate Frosting

Ovation Sticks (2 boxes)

2 Skylanders Figures of Choice

Wilton 6 x 2 Inch Round Cake Pan

Portal Cake Ingredients

Step 1–Bake & Cool Cake: Mix cake batter per instructions and pour into 6-inch round cake pan about 1/2 full. Bake and flip over to cool. (Cake will remain upside down when decorated so that the top of finished cake is very flat.)

Step 2–Frost Top of Cake: Using the marshmallow creme, frost top of cake with a layer thick enough to cover the cake. Le sit for 3-5 minutes and marshmallow will flatten and smooth on its own. 

Step 3–Frost Sides of Cake: Using the chocolate icing, frost sides of cake with a thin layer (just enough to cover the cake and help the Ovation candy sticks stay in the next step.

Step 4–Ovation Sticks: Place two full size Ovations chocolate sticks on sides in six evenly spaced locations. You will cut these down with scissors to about 3/4 of the original length. Then place smaller Ovation sticks in between. The smaller size is 1/2 of an Ovation stick. These should come to just the top of the cake as shown.
