Have you ever made a cut-up cake? This was something we used to do all the time when I was little. The idea is simple \u2013 you start with normally shaped cakes (usually squares or circles), and then cut them up, reassemble them, and create fun designs. <\/p>\n

This cat is made from two 9-inch circle cakes, and is this year’s Halloween cake. I used the star method to decorate, but you could easily use candy or coconut or just straight frost this guy. If you want to follow along with the star method, I included a decorating template along with the cutting template for those like me who can’t freehand to save their life. <\/p>\n

So without further ado, here’s your cat cake breakdown:<\/p>\n

Cat Cut-Up Cake, Step-by-Step<\/h2>\n

Start by baking two 9-inch round cakes. I use one cake mix and split it in two in order to get both cakes. I also use a doctored cake mix recipe (below) because I’m a tiny bit of a cake snob, but any standard cake recipe will work as long as you can get two rounds out of it. Do avoid angel food or really light cakes though, as they tend to break when you cut them.<\/p>\n

I also made a double recipe of buttercream, reserving some of the buttercream before I add the cocoa in order to do the features. <\/p>\n
