How to make a Tea Pot cake


-Grease and flour two 2 qt glass bowls well
-Pour the cake mix into bowls and bake according to recipe instructions. These cakes may take a bit more time than expected. Be sure to test middle of cakes with a toothpick to be sure the middles are cooked through.
-Turn cakes out of bowls onto work surface and allow to cool completely.
-If the tops of the cakes are bowed a bit, not straight, use a serrated knife to cut them slightly so they will be even all of the way across. 
-Carefully place one cake on top of the other with wide sides resting together.
-You can use any color icing you wish. Have fun with it. Try different colors and make it unique.
-Decorate the cake using
  • Plain M&Ms for flowers
  • Peanut M&Ms to go around the top and bottom of the tea pot
  • Blow pop for top of tea pot
  • Cut out a handle and spout from colored poster board. Be sure to make them longer than needed so they can stick into the cake very well.
